A sign of higher metabolism?

[dss62467]

I'm already hungry and I just ate my lunch an hour and a half ago! I wouldn't normally feel this hungry again until 3:00ish (it's 1:30 now).


Think I might have to eat my mid-afternoon fruit salad thing.

What did you have for lunch? A carrot?

I kid! The same thing happens to me sometimes. I'll have a solid meal, and then a short while after food keeps calling. With me that's a peculiar condition called greed .

No, I had a Weight Watchers Chicken Enchilada meal and some popcorn.

Ah, now it all makes sense! Well, higher metabolism sure sounds like a reasonable answer. Also, if you had a super-productive morning (mentally and/or physically) external factors could have been making unusually high demands on your body. Hence the feeling for extra fuel. The more knowledgeable folks on the boards will chip in with other theories I'm sure...

OMG Wendy! THAT made me laugh! Thank goodness pregnancy isn't contagious!

Donna, I am hungry ALL THE TIME. I mean ALWAYS. I have a huge meal & an hour later my stomach is growling. I get accused quite often of having an eating disorder, but if these people only know the amount of food I consumed on a daily basis..........

For some reason the only meal that really fills me for the day is when I have an omelet for brunch. Don't know why, but a good 3 egg omelet w/trimmings keeps me full for 6-8 hours.

Not bloody likely! Thank you, Merina IUD!
