[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]

I'm a thin person (43 and size 2 for my entire life, minus pregnancies) and I guess I am often hungry? I don't really prioritize food and will forget to eat bc I'm doing other things. So I naturally lean towards eating protein since it will fill me up for longer.I would say I never, ever have three full meals per day -- I usually have two good meals and one very very light (like right now I'm eating maybe 4 slices of bacon, and that will be lunch.)

I don't associate the feeling of hunger with and kind of negativity. It's kind of nice, and food actually tastes better when you are hungry.[/quote]
