Anyone else literally hungry all the time? (srs thread is srs)

brb hit macros and overall calories, even more than I should, eating enough protein, nice quality nutrient-dense meals, but still always just this perpetual hunger that lingers around like a particularly haram fart on the air. It's like my system is a troll trying to get me to become a fat kunt again, beckoning me back to the land of the gluttons. It's a constant battle against hunger to not over-eat. My wife will have 1 burger and be stuffed. If I didn't stop myself, I could eat 10 burgers no problem in one sitting. I feel satiated only when completely stuffed beyond belief. We went to an all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant a while back and I ate 75 pieces of maki. I just stopped because I was bored and my jaw hurt from chewing and I wanted to go home lol.

Overactive dopamine system? Impulse control problem? Hypo-arousal? Binge eating disorder? Muh thyroid?

Could be a number of things such as what you listed or ghrelin overproduction or insulin response

Fuk around and find out method is what I suggest, start changing one thing at a time and see if your hunger decreases

Intermittent fasting may do the trick

Although the benefits of quitting far outweigh any negative, this was the one downside to stop chewing. Anytime I was hungry, bored, and just because I could just put a wad in. It was my secret cutting weapon when I was wrestling

Been doing IF for over 10 years - love it. I mean, I'm able to circumvent it. It's slightly irritating but more interesting than anything. I can fight through it and am leaner currently than I ever have been. Willpower and motivation are higher than ever. Was just curious if others experience this too.

Possibly. Although, I drink a lot of water in the day. I think my minerals/salts are on point too.

This happened to me when I switched over to a sedentary lifestyle. When I was in school and had to walk to class and had an active college job, I could eat a small snack for breakfast (like a banana + zero cal monster) and not eat until dinner. Now I'm not even 1/10th as active and need 3-4 big meals a day.

When I’m on a strict cutting diet, I don’t really feel hungry after a while. But if I just eat like a normie then I feel like I’m constantly starving.

I've noticed since quitting nicotine I can just keep eating. I usually not hungry but I don't seem to ever get full.

Bro is you me? Cutting would be stupid easy if I had a normal person's appetite level. I can eat 2+ pounds of meat, rice or potatoes, and vegetables in a single sitting and still be hungry an hour or two later.

IF definitely helps bigly for me. For whatever reason I can go the first 6+ hours of the day without eating no problem. But once I break that fast it's game on.

Intredasting. I am more sedentary now than I used to be. I try my best to implement activities but my job is more static than my old jobs. I also spend a considerable amount of time sitting and working in my recording studio so my brain is always active but my body isn't really.

Know these feels. I did 120 brutal days of cut over the winter/spring on sub 2000 calories a day with my brain screaming at me to eat 24 hours a day. Possibly one of my life's greatest accomplishments (srs). Power of the mind, I guess.

Normally - no. Due to booze/drunken munchies, worrying about getting or maintaining "muh gainz"/ fear of being a "twink" I've never actually gotten shredded, but I've been trying to drop that shyt and have dropped quite a bit of weight recently as a result.

Typically I don't have that big of an appetite and can get by on not eating very much.

are you hungry - where you are willing to eat anything or getting cravings for types of foods?

when I am on point, I rarely get hungry cause I am usually force feeding myself. But sometimes I do get hungry - so I run it through my protein "test" - so if I am hungry for something salty I can eat a couple hardboiled eggs or a thing of tuna. If I want something sweet I can have a greek yogurt. If I don't want any of that, then I am not actually hungry, just craving

I'm pretty active between my job, lifting, walking, etc. It's also hot as fukk down here in the United State of Texas. Doesn't matter. Still hungry. All the time. This is my cutting lunch today, will be hungry enough to eat the exact same thing again in 2 hours if I wanted.

7 ounces rice
About a pound of veggies and mushrooms
7 ounces chicken.

Hunger is insulin resistance, you’re hungry because of your metabolic syndrome, which will eventually turn into pre-diabetes If you wait long enough, 90% of people have this,

if you want your hunger to go away you will have to decrease your carbohydrate intake, and for a while you may have to decrease it to zero, There are other tricks and tips, but this one is the most important.

It’s also going to be important that you don’t just blindly replace those calories with lean proteins, since they also spike insulin, and thus will keep you hungry, or you also should not replace them with liquid protein shakes even if they include fat, because it’s the same story over and over - liquid is not as satiating so you’re just going to be hungry, your carb restriction should be replaced with fatty animal proteins and vegetables, such as salads, avocado, and so on.

You need to double your current water intake, take some electrolytes, obviously no snacking, intermittent fasting helps, supplementing with things like barberine and cinnamon and drinking organic Matcha green tea controls appetite nicely as well.

if you are on a plan and following it, you really shouldn't ever feel hungry unless you are following a fast. So if you are hungry outside of your meals, you probably aren't really hungry, you're just having a craving for food.

You're probably either very lean right now or you're somewhat glycogen depleted or a combo. Just eat your carbs and lift heavy (with good form). You shouldn't gain fat unless u eat carbs up to a point of being fuking bloated and sweating while doing nuffin. Eat your carbs to a point ur muscles look full/pumped without working out and go work out.

My desire to stuff my face never goes away. When I am eating food I usually am thinking about my next meal.

Always hungry. But like others have said, its once I eat the first meal that I just want more, more, more food. But i never skip breakfast.

I would love nothing more than to just sit down at the end of everyday and just shovel junk food into my mouth for hours, but I dont. I am very lean but been gaining weight recently since I started eating more during the day and upping the carbs. Now I actually can lay in bed at night and not have to snack.

Its torture. Appetite is around you all the time. I used to weigh 100lbs more, lost it when I was a late teen, and part of me things the increased fat cells and dysfunctional appetite regulation has followed me into adulthood to haunt me. I keep lean by restricting myself heavily (no carbs), min to moderate fat, insane amount of vegetables and fiber. Lots of water. But the moment I try to eat like a normal person (not having 3 hearts of romaine for dinner) I have an insatiable appetite to the point where I cant focus, sleep, etc.

Debating heavily just going on GLPs one on black market.If I had the cash Id do it for sure.

Try upping your fiber intake and playing around with your macros by adding in more monounsaturated fats and protein. (Super Ded fkn Srs)

^^ Thanks for all the comments, much appreciated. I think increasing fibers and proteins might be a good thing to try. I do eat a lot more carbs outside of cut cycles and that really messes with my hunger. It's not really torturous or anything, and I can resist it fine, it's mostly just interesting that it seems to be around all the time.

Also hunger for sex never goes away (srs). Can bust 4 nuts in one day, zero refractory period, and it's always been that way. There's probably some hypo-active impulse control system that's wired awry in my brain that causes me to need more of everything to feel a baseline level of satisfaction. I've always done things to the 'extreme.' Not impairing my life, mind you, and it's allowed me to achieve great things, but I'm ambitious and generally not satisfied until I really give that activity or goal my all.

Try adding extra salt to your meals or try IF 16+ hours.

Definitely do this too, especially when cutting. It's really helpful to have a large hot cup of herbal tea after dinner to create a fuller sensation. I've been drinking rooibos tea a lot lately.

Also hunger for sex never goes away (srs). Can bust 4 nuts in one day, zero refractory period, and it's always been that way. There's probably some hypo-active impulse control system that's wired awry in my brain that causes me to need more of everything to feel a baseline level of satisfaction. I've always done things to the 'extreme.' Not impairing my life, mind you, and it's allowed me to achieve great things, but I'm ambitious and generally not satisfied until I really give that activity or goal my all.
If I'm really struggling, I'll add a couple of tablespoons of sugar free Metamucil to a small meal with high protein and low carbs. (Ded fkn Srs)
