I lost 35 pounds and when I first eased up and entered "maintenance mode" I was so afraid of gaining the weight back that I inadvertently lost another 10 pounds. Give yourself a chance to learn about your new body and see what your new normal is in terms of calories before you restrict yourself to no snacking or never eating after 7 pm forever. You might be able to eat more than you think.

I wasn't eating in the evenings when I was losing weight. I now eat whenever I'm hungry no matter what time it is. I still weigh 45 pounds less than I did last year. If I don't eat when I'm hungry, or only eat dainty little meals and low calorie snacks, I end up losing weight that I don't want to lose. So I don't think it's psychological. I think I made dietary changes and changes to my fitness level that have improved my metabolism.

I used to do orange theory 5-6x a week. I was Always much hungrier on those days. Keep snacks with you at all times so you have something to eat whenever you are hungry.

I keep baby tomatoes, almonds, zucchini sticks, string cheese and baby carrots with me at work. When I get hungry I’ll just have a few of these as a small snack.

Don’t skip breakfast, and make sure you drink lots of water.

When all else fails, just accepts the fact you’re human, and will get hungry eventually. Just don’t start taking diabetes pills like most models do.

Help!

Recently lost over 50lb. I was so strict and regimented. Good about exercising. Went away on a long weekend with girlfriends and fell a little bit off the wagon. I haven’t gained any weight (thankfully) and I’m not eating junk per se, but I’m hungrier now? I’m sure it’s psychological, but I want to end it before it snowballs. I’ve been trying all week to be better but I’m falling into old habits of wanting to eat in the evenings. Nothing is working! Help!
