Bandster Hell Is Winning! Aaghh!

[Jean McMillan 2,973]

Eating planned meals or Snacks every 3-4 hours was/is essential for me.

You also need to start thinking about whether your hunger is always physical. After you eat one cup of solid food, are you still having hunger pangs, tummy grumbling, etc? Or is it more that you just feel unsatisfied - that you haven't eaten enough and want more? It took me a long time to get used to the idea of a small amount of food being "enough". I had to weigh/measure my food and put it on a small plate (like a salad plate) so it wouldn't look so meager.

Bandster hell is really hard; I'm there myself and am so hungry! But I'm taking the suggestions in this thread too and I'm going to power through it until I get some restriction. We can do this!

i'm still days out till my 1st fill and this bandster hell is winning! my hunger is back and with a vengeance. i don't even want to get on the scale because i'm scared of seeing how much of the weight i lost i've gained back i'm trying so hard to make good choices and to keep to my 1 cup servings but it's not enough!!! the good choices isn't so hard. i know i need to stay away from the bad and that's more mental than anything but the servings is a hunger thing....i think. all i know is that after a 1 cup serving meal i'm still hunger and looking around at everyone else's plate like i could eat theirs too!

ugh' date=' how does one survive this with their sanity and confidence that this will work in the long run??? because right now i'm starting to question everything![/quote']

Don't compare yourself to any one else. Eat more often smaller portions. It works., lots of Water only Water
