Would you be hungry

80 replies

Would you be hungry if this is what you ate today:

7.30 2 weetabix and milk

12.30 small wholemeal roll with ham mayo and mustard, small low fat yoghurt, small apple and clementine

16.30 two crackers with blue cheese

I'm starving and it's two hours until tea?

I'm so really hungry or just craving food?

I’d be starving! Needs more vegetables and protein.

I'd be starving.

Hoglet70 · 28/02/2024 17:39

Yep, I'd be desperate for my dinner by now.

ShillyShallySherbet · 28/02/2024 17:39

Your mistake is waiting two hours for your tea, why are you eating so late? I have had a similar amount to eat today and have just eaten my main meal and won’t eat again until breakfast tomorrow. I would be snacking now on rubbish if I wasn’t eating until 8pm.

MassiveOvaryaction · 28/02/2024 17:40

Some days yes, some days no. Would depend on activity levels and how I was feeling.

Usually have our evening meal around 6/6:30 though. And I drink shedloads of water.

OhItsOnlyCynthia · 28/02/2024 17:42

Yeah, definitely some days I'd be hungry. My appetite varies from day to day, but I'd say on the average day I'd be looking forward to dinner after that.

ImNotThereAmI · 28/02/2024 17:42

I’d be hungry because that’s all carbs. Eating protein or even nothing is better for me. Eating carbs gets my blood sugar up and then just constantly craving food all day

nokidshere · 28/02/2024 17:43

Is there a reason you are eating so little?

eandz13 · 28/02/2024 17:43

I'd be really hungry.

If the OP is like me it’s the earliest time to eat with the commute home, out to clubs, make food and then eat.

OP, I’d be hungry.

Geebray · 28/02/2024 17:45

I would be starving on that. You need more protein and fat!

Surely you realise that some people work and it’s not feasible to eat dinner by 5:30!! I’m still at the bus stop waiting to go home, let alone washing up 🙄

SouthLondonMum22 · 28/02/2024 17:47

Of course you'd be really hungry.

Oh yes, all carbs... Definitely zero protein to be found in the milk, the cheese, the yoghurt, the ham or the mayo ...

MyLadyTheKingsMother · 28/02/2024 17:48

Why do you think you shouldn't be hungry op?

That must be 600/700 calories all in max.

She's had cheese, ham, milk, yoghurt and AND mayo... All protein...

Rickrolypoly · 28/02/2024 17:49

well today I've had 2 Weetabix with skimmed milk,
2 slices of toast
small bit of chocolate
1 coffee, 2 teas

I am hungry! Gonna make carbonara for dinner.

BreakfastAtMimis · 28/02/2024 17:49

I'd be starving!

FinallyFeb · 28/02/2024 17:50

I wouldn’t be starving but I would be hungrier than if I’d had nuts for example instead of the crackers and some more protein with lunch.

I always think of the carbs....sadly!

wubwubwub · 28/02/2024 17:51

<sits here waiting for the teeny tinies to let us know that even 1 Weetabix would be too much for them>

Delicious carbs.

FortunataTagnips · 28/02/2024 17:52

I’d be ravenous and would have had to have a mid-afternoon snack.

Scalottia · 28/02/2024 17:52

Mmmm carbs! So delicious. Now I am craving buttery toast.

I would be really hungry after that amount of food OP.
