Can head hunger make your tummy rumble? It's my first day on my Medifast diet. I'm supposed to have 5 Medifast nutritional suppliments (choice of shake, pudding, oatmeal or soup) and one lean and green meal. I didn't really feel hungry today but the sweet, sweet, sweet thing got to me. I just ate an oatmeal and some water and I feel super hungry, like rumbling in my tummy. I want a carrot, half a plain mini bagel, something not sweet, but I can't figure out if this is real huger or head hunger. What do you think?

My guess would be that it's carb hunger! Oatmeal is considered to be a 'good' carb, but it still makes me very hungry unless I make it with milk and add butter (the fat helps the carbs digest more slowly). Maybe have it with 1/2 of your shake next time to boost the protein...that might help.
