I try running, stair climbing and stretching every day and I try not to eat to feel full up. I don’t know if this is a stupid idea, but I’m sure dieting involves feeling moderately hungry, which is what I do now.
Sometimes, after a long hard workday I feel so hungry I eat a lot for dinner, meaning I don’t have to have breakfast before I start working out. I don’t know if this is also a stupid idea. Do you have a small breakfast before starting your work out in the morning before going to work?
A variation of this involves eating only whole grains at night before going to sleep because sometimes that’s the only thing at hand.
Should I change anything?
Dieting doesn’t necessarily mean feeling hungry all the time. Yes, for some it might feel that way, because they are used to eating large quantities unnecessarily. But in general, dieting for most people means eating better: Less processed, sugary foods and more vegetables and wholegrain products. These tend to have fewer calories but more volume, so eating the same amount in terms of volume helps lose weight already.
Binge-eating tends to be a lot more problematic. I’m not a nutritionist, so I can’t help you at this point, but you should put some research into preparing a meal plan that provides your body everything it needs.
That entirely depends on you. Some people prefer some light breakfast in the morning, others don’t eat anything at all. For myself, I can hardly get going without eating something in the morning. At the same time, I notice my energy level highly depends on what it is that I eat. I.e. toast with some sugary spread on top, sometimes even upsets my stomach. My regular oatmeal with nuts and fresh fruits takes some time to prepare, but it is a lot healthier.
