Daisalana 33 Posted May 22, 2007 Typically my morning at work are way too chaotic to think about eating.. and before work, I'm barely rolling out of bed, so I don't have time to eat before going in.. Even pre-band, my first food is normally lunch time, and I don't pause to think about if I'm hungry before then. Well today some reason.. (I've been taking phen---diet pill for past week or so), I didn't take my diet pill, got real busy, and started to get hungry. Real hungry. I don't always take lunch break either, I work through lunch and eat something in the office (if I decide to eat). Since taking the phen, I don't get hungry till dinner time, so I've only eaten after 5pm. But today like I said, I was soo hungry, I was growling and having severe cramps from being hungry! It was weird.. so afterwork we went by Wendy's on the way home, and I got a chili. While eating it, I felt like everything was struggling to go down. I was so hungry it made me not hungry... (I have had that sensation before), but I was trying to eat a little so I'd stop feeling sick.. and it felt like my band was tight! It felt like I was taking huge bites (honest, I wasn't!!), so 3-4 bites later I just stopped trying. I haven't felt my band 'tighten' from being hungry before, anyone else have this happen??? Or know why? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iluvharleys 15 Posted May 22, 2007 It might have just been from stress. I have had times that my stomach is growling and I am so hungry I can't take it. When I finally take a few bites, I'm full and satisified. It doesn't make sense, but we have to remember our bands are really fickle! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marimaru 7 Posted May 22, 2007 It happens to me too. I couldn't tell you why, my best guess is that the stomach starts grumbling, and producing acid, and maybe you get a little swollen or something? No clue. On another note though, if you aren't eating anything all day until dinner, are you making sure you are eating enough? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisalana 33 Posted May 23, 2007 Yeah, I keep a daily journal thing, I have been on average 1,200 calories, the past week around 900 due to I've been forgetting to eat my 5:30. I typically eat at 5:30 and then 8:30. I also have a frappucino w/protein powder for my b'fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
giveyouthemoon 4 Posted May 23, 2007 Yeah, I have that issue. I have to be careful not to get too hungry or I'll get into that place where I'm *starving* and can't eat. Ugh. And a side note...Frappacino? The kind from Starbucks full of sugar? Or are you making your own non-sugar version???? Cuz if you are having sugar for Breakfast you are going to be way hungry all day.
