Is this normal??
| Tue, 10-14-2003 - 8:18pm |
I am only on day two of Phase 1, and both yesterday and today, I have had periods of time where I am soooo shaky, sweaty, starving. This happens to me whenever I get really hungry (diet or not). I have been eating enough, even maybe a little more since I am breastfeeding my 5 month old, but I still have felt pretty hungry almost all day. I thought you weren't supposed to feel hungry?
I am a Weight Watcher member, but lately I have been totally overloading on carbs and sugar, and I think this diet may really help me break the addiction. I need to lose about 30 pounds to get below my pre pregnancy weight.
Has anyone else experienced the shaking/sweating/hunger?? Will it go away?
Thanks.

The first 2 days were the hardest for me two. Everytime I felt hungry, I ate something just to keep that "hungry" feeling at bay. I felt like I probably ate too much, but I stuck to the allowed foods and made it thru that yucky phase. Day 3 was much better for me.
Hopefully, you will get over this hump and really enjoy this way of eating.
Best of luck to you :)

I agree with the suggestion of perhaps starting with phase two.
Remember also that breastfeeding makes a woman naturally very hungry. Nursing women are supposed to feel hungry so that they eat enough to nourish their babies. If your body is telling you to eat more, you probably should. Also keep in mind that your baby is only 5 months old and nursing moms are supposed to have extra fat stores. It helps with milk production. Only in Hollywood do nursing moms turn into a size 4 overnight!
