Q:
Why am I always hungry? I feel satisfied right after eating,
but then I’m starving in about 90 minutes.
A:
If you’re following the program exactly how it should be and
you’re still hungry in between meals, you could try eating more frequently,
like every two hours or so, so that you are eating five times a day. For
example, you could have three regular-sized meals and two Atkins-friendly
snacks, such as an Atkins Advantage bar or shake in between your meals. Keep
eating the same amount of net carbs and protein and fat that you have been, but
spread them out between these meals and snacks. You should also do a spot check
to make sure you are consuming enough calories. Make sure you are not taking in
fewer than 1,500 calories daily. Some other options include changing the kind
of fat you are eating with your meals, and make sure you’re getting your full
amount of approved vegetables each day. The fiber in the vegetables will help
fill you up.
