I have gotten where I'm hungry all the time I want to snack all the time. I'm eating stuff I know I shouldn't but I'm hungry. Help I have to get back on track. Didn't make this decision to just be a loser all over again. I have had to have knee surgery so it's hard to exercise now and walk some days. I work so it's hard to go to gym. Just need some help to get my life back under control. Thank you for listening and help is appreciated.

I know how you feel. I have been going through this since my birthday (Nov22) right before the holidays and throughout the holiday season. Now that the holidays are over I'm starting over again!

Try keeping cooked chicken breast and broccoli always on hand. When you are hungry and want a snack, ask yourself if you want to eat chicken breast and broccoli. If you don't, then you aren't actually hungry -- you are just having cravings/head hunger. If you do want to eat chicken breast and broccoli, go for it. You can't do much damage with chicken breast and broccoli.

Disclaimer: the chicken breast and broccoli must be leanly prepared! I'm not talking deep fried chicken, or chicken slathered in BBQ sauce, or broccoli with a boatload of melted cheese poured over it. Prepared using cooking sprays and herbs.

Thank you for ideas I actually just told myself no more pitty parties for me I did quarter mile on elliptical I know that not much to some but with my knees it's great I have to get my butt back in gear and my mind love the broccoli and chicken idea

Go back to the basics. Protein first. Get your water in. Move around as much as your knee will let you. Try to eat on a schedule rather than eating when you are "hungry". If you are prioritizing protein and eat 5-6 times a day on a schedule, there shouldn't be much opportunity for hunger.

I'm bought some protein shake to take to work with me since I work in a chocolate factory it's hard but most of all just getting up and moving is what I need the most can't let my knees control me. It's mind over matter just have to remember this.

Thank you everyone for your support and no negative response I haven't been on here because I didn't want negative reactions. Should've been back on here sooner. Thank you for allowing me back to the losers bench.????

You work in a chocolate factory??

This is almost always caused by carbs, at least for me. If I allow myself to eat carbs then my hunger goes through the roof. However, if I go back to the pre-op diet for a few days my hunger goes back to be non-existent. This may be a warning sign for you to watch your carbs.

Yes it's horrible I was so good till going here and Them telling me try this try that I have to just say no it's like a drug

Didn't realize this about carbs I will try the liquid diet again I did it for 2 weeks before surgery and 2 weeks after so I can handle a few days to get back on track thanks for all the info
