Starving all the time..
Just looking for some advice or maybe ideas. I've been trying to eat clean and strict with the goal of leaning out for a while now. I'm def noticing changes in my body, which is great, but recently it seems I am hungry constantly. I could eat a full meal, feel satisfied and 20-30 min later starvin again. Here's an example of my diet which is basically low carb with some carb cycling on lifting days. Any suggestions to help me feel more Satisfied without adding back carbs or increasing calories to much.
All meals are 2-3 hours apart max
Meal 1- 1/2 cup oats .. 3 scoops whey or 10 egg whites.
Meal 2 - 12 egg whites
Meal 3 - 10-12 oz chick breast or ground turkey with lots if Green veggie
Meal 4 - 2 scoops whey and veggie (if im at work) otherwise repeat meal 3
Meal 5 - repeat meal 3
Meal 6 - 12 egg whites
My stats are posted on profile .
Thanks in advance!

well ur problem is ur diet doesnt have any unsaturated fats, try adding in 50-60 g of unsat fats and then ur gunna notice that ur not hungry anymore. try it , it makes a huge difference.. all i see is protien and low carbs which is not good.. wana lose fat ur gunna have to eat some..olive oil is ur friend
Add in some lean red meat. Trust me. That will help your body and mind tremendously.
Pickles and salad, ephedrine to suppress hunger.
Hey mate dont forget about salads. They can provide needed fibre and fill a bit more. as well as that they are a negative calorie food. You can eat that shit all day mate. Also at night some diet jelly is ok as well. The main problem is that you will be up at night going to the toilet
all youre eating is egg whites and chicken
id kill myself within a matter of days with that torture. it is hard work though man, i can sympathize with you on that!!! i have fat boy cravings all the time when i eat clean... just gotta make that sacrifice for the sake of those summer abz
sgtstedankoWhen I find myself "starving". I chug 16oz of Ice cold water. Try to wait 15min. & if I'm still hungry, I have an apple & a half scoop protein shake. Always works for me...
also - i ditched the 6+ meal thing 4 or 5 years ago, that shit makes you hungry like clock work.
It's one thing if you are trying to build mass and physically cannot eat everything in 3 sittings, but when trying to lean out, you never get satisfied at any one of those meals.
Increased meal frequency as a way to increase metabolism is a myth that's been debunked in the past several years.
I get you man - for me to lean out, I get to hardly eat anything unless I'm doing shit-tons of gpp work on top of eating really clean.
The older I get, the less time I physically have to spend doing a lot of cardio (not that I want to do a lot even if I have time) - so I rely on doing one (or a combination) of the following:
if all else fails - I turn to appetite suppressants.
Buildbigger86I would eat complex carbs in the morning to early afternoon with your meals. That will give you more energy and fill you up a lot more. If your just eating protein basically then it is normal to feel hungry after 30-60 mins. Although protein takes around 3 hours to break down. You still feel like your starving right after you eat it.
i would do your cup of oats with 1 egg yoke and 9 egg whites. Dont have a shake for breakfast it wont fill you up enough.
meal 2- eat a greek yogurt with some fruit
meal 3- looks good
meal 4- whey shake but try to get one with some carbs in it
meal 5- looks good
meal 6- which i take is an hour or 2 before you got to bed?? I would have a casein shake( slow digesting protein
waltris that even 2000 calories? =/
Buildbigger86But i agree with waltr you really dont take in many calories at all. DEF NOT OVER 2000
