karakara Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Today is my day 4. Yesterday I was very hungry between meals. I amped up my breakfast today and had 3 eggs scrambled in 1/2 T ghee, 1/3 c roasted sweet potatoes, 1/2 c homemade salsa (tomato, onion, pepper, cilantro, lime), and 1/2 avocado. I was hungry after only 2 hours. What am I doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaelisan Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Your body will adjust. Try adding more fat at meal 1, or even having a compliant snack for a day or two until you don't get hungry between meals anymore. Better to have larger meals than snack.

jmcbn Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 You might try mixing your protein sources - many people find they stay satiated for longer if they combine eggs with fish or meat like ground beef.A half an avocado is fine fat-wise, but you could do with adding in more veg - the recommendation is for 1-3 cups, with 3 being optimum...

laura_juggles Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 If you're female, could you be nearing your period? I get absolutely ravenous in the days leading up to it. Like, need to add a 4th meal or I'm going to kill someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmhampton1 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I agree with the female comment and the veggies. You only had 1/3 cup of veggies and minimum is 1 cup. I would up it for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
