Hungry hungry hungry spells?

I may have mentioned this before but it seems every few months I go through these really hungry phases and no matter what I eat, I am hungry like 5 minutes later. It is so bizarre. I'd say it lasts about a week and isnt necessarily around the time of Aunt Flo but this time it is.

I just cannot get full and it drives me nuts! Does this happen to anyone else or is it just me? Ugh it is so annoying!

Update: Ok this is what I ate yesterday, it felt like so much..is this normal? It is all pretty healthy but still...

3 hard boiled egg whites and high fiber oatmeal for breakfast
1/2 grapefruit
greek yogurt
apple
Turkey on a whole wheat wrap and a side of brocolli
5 pretzel rods
Balance Bar
3 cookies (bc I was so hungry and ran out of food at work)
1.5 chicken cutlets, brocolli rabe and cous cous
A few chips and salsa

Lots of water and 2 cups of green tea.

Happens to me too. Sometimes eating more protein helps or drinking something hot. Sounds silly but it make me feel fuller.

Yes this happens to me too at times and honestly I end up just snacking more and more and then somehow find a way to control myself! Sorry no advice to give just letting you know you are not the only one! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Ok it has got to be hormonal then. I noticed it happens like 4-5 times a year where I feel like I am eating myself out of house and home.

PS - I updated above with what I ate yesterday.

wait! this is what you ate in an entire day and it feels like a lot??? It looks like a normal day of food for me or even less than what I'd eat in a day. YIKES, no wonder I'm so fat Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
