So, a major premise here is that I am always hungry – I live my life in a constant state of hunger.
The goal is just to keep it under control – a low level hum in the background. Well, lately, the hunger, it has been assertive. I think about food. I dream about food. I obsess about food.
This, of course, makes it hard to focus – at work or at home. I get irritable. I get cranky. Even I don’t like me.
And then I start making bad choices. Like eating dangerous food …
Or just simply disregarding portion sizes.
I’ll walk into a restaurant or a grocery store – any place with food, really, and struggle to hold back.
And lord help us all if you set something edible down in front of me.
I try to eat the things that are supposed to make this better – I have protein, I have fruits and vegetables to get fiber, I eat all of my WW points for the day, and yet I still can’t get it under control.
Maybe I just need to get busier – maybe it is boredom.
Regardless, I’ve got to figure it out, because, yikes, this is getting crazy.
Three miles this morning – maybe I just need to work harder to earn the few extra calories.
Any big ideas, let me know. I’m open to all suggestions for appetite suppression at this point.

A Constant State of Hunger 
If only I knew the answer! I’m currently gaining weight, not sure why. Trying to get into a steady running schedule in the hope that eventually my fitness will improve enough tonrun further and eventually change my calorie balance from positive to negative!
By all means, if you figure it out let me know…
