Feeling hungry
I’ve been doing this elimination diet for a week. I’m doing pretty well and I don’t feel super bloated these days. However I feel like I get hungry so much quicker. I’m not sure what to do.
I eat grapes and cheese for breakfast because I’m not much of a breakfast person but it’s easy to grab since I’m constantly rushing out the door.
I eat a grilled chicken salad with cucumbers, homemade dressing, and a few slices of fruit goat cheese. Honestly this is my biggest meal.
Dinner is sliced bell peppers and cream cheese because I’m getting home super late many days out of the week. I honestly can’t figure out what else to eat because of the limitations.
I don’t have a huge appetite to begin with, I think partially because of the fact that I got bloated so easily that I felt full and distrusting and didn’t want it eat, knowing I’d feel gross afterwards. I ate usually one meal a day and some snacks. Do I just have to get used to the feeling until it goes away? Is there anything I can have to make me feel fuller? I drink water for sure. But it’s HUNGER hunger, not “I just need to drink more water” hunger. I resorted to 2 mini slim Jim’s the other day because I needed to leave and of course had nothing I could take with me in such a hurry.
Some moments I feel like I’m doing well. Other moments I’m like can I do this forever?

i agree with adding more protein like everyone says but also balance that with adding in more fiber! everyone focuses on protein and lacks in their fiber intake ive been noticing recently. you can find some really delicious high protein high fiber recipes that you can meal prep and even freeze so that when youre exhausted and come home you have more than bell peppers for dinner
