Don't you hate it when your stomach's growling, but you just ate? I am finding it interesting this time around as I am trying to re-train my brain to recognize actual hunger vs. habit or cravings. It's always been that I would eat dinner and no matter how full I was I would want a dessert right away... something sweet. This also happens to me in the middle of the night. I wake up and can't fall asleep unless I have something to eat.
Even tho' I am working on this by 1) eating slowly (try putting the fork down inbetween every bite) and
2) keeping low point snacks available around the house. So far I've been trying things like:
- sugar free jello and pudding
- special K cereal
- Individual size Popcorn
- granola bars
- Twizzlers
- veggie chips
- yogurt
Hope these things keep working... variety is the key... and it will be a challenge to keep coming up with new things.
