I can't stop eating. I'm hungry all the time. ..how can I curb this appetite and get back on track??

Re: Eating everything in sight

  • I'm having the same problem. I guess just try to have s stash of healthy snacks that are filling and appetizing, and drinking lots of water helps, too.

  • I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism this week which explained my crazy hunger... but it's also probably just a pregnancy think.
  • I don't have any advice, but I've officially reached the stage where I wake up in the middle of the night starving. I try to curb it by always having water close by.

  • This has been me for the last few days...and I'm craving "bad" food (fries, mayo, candy, popcorn (the cheesy kind), you name it).  I'm finally feeling less nauseaus than I have been so I've been indulging big time.  I'm also away on a work trip right now so I'm hoping to get back on track next week.  I find that when I workout, I eat more healthy options so I'm hoping to get back into the gym next week.  
  • That's funny- I craved smartfood on the weekend.  I must have eaten half a giant bag of it.  It was awesome :).  
    I haven't been to the gym in ages and I'm usually there 3 times a week- just not up for it.  I had a very active and healthy pregnancy with my daughter and I'm optimistic that I can get that way in this one too- eventually.
  • This is me, total junk food addict. I feel so terrible! I know better, but healthy food kudzu looks so unappealing now.

  • This was me with pregnancy #1.  And I gained about... 55/60 pounds?  Awful.  I highly recommend chugging water AS MUCH AS YOU CAN.  And keep baby carrots close by.

  • Just starting a few days ago I have been eating nonstop!!!! I guess I'm making up for all those days in the first tri where I didn't want to touch anything.

    Seriously considering what snack I want next........

  • Whenever I'm not feeling nauseous this is me 100%. I try to have healthy snacks around but a lot of times fruit or veggies make me feel gaggy. My body wants carbs, which is terrible. I've been concentrating on trying to do more fruits, veggies, I even got some yogurt and can eat it, I never used to before. The weird thing is I've always been an overeater, but now I am truly hungry, whereas before I think I was just bored. I also drink 90-120 oz of water every day, I rarely drink anything besides water or occasionally decaf coffee. I like to convince myself it's ok to have a healthy snack when I get those hunger pangs becuase I've lost about 15 lbs since BFP so my body may really need the extra calories!
  • I'm on my third giant cookie of the day and I feel no shame.
