Are you human ?

One skill you're going to need to learn is how to differentiate types of hunger.

Is it physical hunger that can be satisfied by something nutritious?

Is it head hunger where you need to remove the trigger?

Is it stomach acid and you need to make sure you're taking your PPI?

I’ve found the return of hunger to be erratic. Yes, it probably was at after about two months I first felt hungry again but then not for days after that. You too may find this is erratic and even how you feel hungry is not like it used to be. Did you get your Protein & fluids in yesterday? If I don’t get my protein in one day I can feel hungry the next.

I had trouble sleeping one night after a Christmas party where I had only eaten a salmon canapé. Didn’t know what was wrong, until I realised I was hungry. Got up and ate some steak at 11:30 & felt way better.

Eight months out & it’s still the same. I sometimes have to remind myself to eat cause if I don’t feel hungry so I try to keep a strict routine for when I eat so I’m meeting my nutrient goals not hungry the next day. But everyone is different.
