I am so confused... I have been going to a nutritionalist, I've had 2 appointments with her so far, she's great... but for the past couple days I think I have been eating more that usual...I've been hungrier more than usual.
I started taking a multivitamin 2 weeks ago and it made me dizzy and naucious, so far so good this week though.
I never eat on my breaks at work..so I go 4 or 5 hours without food almost every day, and she said thats more likely the reason why I may eat more at meal times. So now I eat an apple at work every break and I dont feel too bad about it. She also said with cereal or my breakfast I should have say a banana.
So now that I am eating a bit more, I am getting hungrier. What is going on here? I am feeling guilty.

From 830am-1230pm, I ate 1/2 can of peach slices, 270 cal yogurt and granola for breakfast, a snack I had a nutrigran bar, then I ate 1/4 can of beans with 280 cal chicken thing, and I was still hungry after that so I ate a saltynut bar. its now 130 and i am kinda hungry again but will not eat. as at 12 I wanted to purge everything because I thought that was waaaaaaaaaaayy too much food for me to be eating in the morning.
Before all I would have is cereal until lunch time.
How much is too much??

I experience the same feelings... like WOW... hunger.. what is that??? and.. what you described eating.. is so so healthy....I am so proud of you if I am allowed to say that...

I have been commenting to my T... my tummy wants to be fed now.. "what gives"... I mean I am not used to this feeling... ya know...I don't know.. what this is....

And he tells.. me.. "this".. is how you should be feeling... the "just cereal".... and such.. isn't... because I would go.. with nothing... and then maybe.. eat... some peanut butter toast....

and... you are "fueling" your body... and... I believe the hunger will "even" out... if...we stick with it..

so... please keep going.... Yahoo...

Ahhh! I am glad someone can relate! and that you are proud, that made me smile.
You make some very good points freewill... hunger is a weird thing to us. It seemed that before I was never that hungry... hunger was never much of a thing to me, it was just that I felt I wanted to eat for no reason...or to feel good, but I would punish myself -always- for that. Now my T is saying, hey - allow yourself to eat... it's okay.
"what gives!?" is exactly my thoughts freewill...

I hope our hunger will even out... it seems hard for the both of us to figure out what amounts of food is "normal" and healthy to fuel ourselves with in a day. My worry that although I am now eating healthy foods, I am still not sure if it is too much... but perhaps right now my body is saying this is what I need to keep me going.

I hope you keep going too freewill, thanks for your post

Awww i feel for you

eating more sugar can make you want sugar.

I watched a programme once that said if you dont chew your food properly or enough times, your brain wont register how much you've eaten, therefore it will think that your body needs more food and send out hungar pains.

This seems like a really simple and pointless answer but maybe try chewing your food more times?

Hope it helps x
