As I’ve written before my appetite has dropped significantly since dropping the level of carbs again.
Yesterday met up with some friends and went for lunch. I always struggle because I’ve never managed to know what to eat because there is nothing without carbs.
So had burger and chips. Included as much fat as possible, and to be honest, struggled to eat it because I was full so quick, but at £16 that meal was nearing eaten.
Couple hours later, walking back to car, thought ooh I could get sweets. Promptly told myself off and continued walking. Sugars were 9 so not good but not horrendous.
Got home and still stuffed. All good.
Then got munchies, which was weird because I wasn’t really hungry.
Ended up having 2 chicken grills and beans and now, 2 hours later was a 12.1 very not good.
This morning woke up (forgot to do sugars) but my appetite is out of control. I think I’ve eaten more in three hours than I have all week.
I’m avoiding carbs but eating chicken grills (low carb) sausages etc. Not hungry but just want to eat eat eat.
I’m assuming my body actually just wants carbs which is why it’s not having it.
Think this is the first time I’ve noticed just how different things are.
I’ve gone seemingly overnight, from not really wanting to eat even when starving to being full and just not wanting to stop!!
Think I need someone to knock me out with a hammer and let me wake up tomorrow!!
Luckily I don’t have much carby stuff here but dear lord today is going to be tough.
I have more grills in the oven.
Bring on tomorrow when hopefully things return to not wanting to eat. It was quite nice.
I guess it’s good that I’m noticing the differences.
But I just can’t stop eating!!
