5 Reasons You Could Be Hungry Shortly After Eating Your Meals
I love when I get questions from TBP members! This question was from one of our TBPers who asked me about some possible reasons for feeling hungry about 30-60 minutes after eating her meals. Enjoy listening to my response!
Quick recap in video:
Reasons for still feeling hungry (of course, there could be so many other reasons, but these are some big ones to start thinking about.)
- Not eating enough for what your body needs. (ie: did you exercise that day and need more calories? or is your body just in an "underfed" state?
- Was enough FIBER and PROTEIN eaten at the meal?
- Are you having a blood sugar response called reactive hypoglycemia, where your blood sugar dips after eating? This can be found out by testing with a glucose meter.
- Are you under stress? Stress can cause the adrenals to work harder, and that can also be a cause of blood sugar dips (when your blood sugar dips, surprisingly your body tells you you're hungry!)
- Do you have a food intolerance to something you ate?
