[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wondering, for all you thin people. Does it take work to maintain your weight? Do you experience hunger daily? I'm 5'7 and 139; just lost 10 pounds and hoping to lose 7 more to get back into my clothes. Sort of went on a binge since Covid and became heavier than I'd ever been. I'm finding that to lose the weight, I have to be willing to endure hunger every day. Not all day, but certainly, for periods of every day - I go to bed a bit hungry and I spend much of my morning (like right now) hungry. I've been able to power through it because I'm seeing progress on the scale and it's motivating. But generally, I love the feeling of being full, even stuffed, and it's rather depressing to think that if I want to be at my goal weight, I'm going to have to eat less for the long term and thus, maybe, be hungry for a good portion of my life.[/quote]

This is why so many people go low-carb. Cutting carbs and sugar is Life altering for me. It makes a huge difference in feelings, satiated. I’ve personally found that a high protein keto diet works very well for me.[/quote]

I can’t agree more with this. If you eat satisfying, filling food at each meal, you won’t feel the need to graze all day long, like some kind of ruminant animal. But we’re talking making animal products center stage-I.e.-a salad with grilled chicken thighs or soup/stew full of meats and veggies for lunch, tuna steak or a braised beef dish for dinner.  I think it’s difficult for most people to get that kind of satiety from a carb-laden, mostly plant-based diet. Hence the need to eat throughout the day. [/quote]
