Thank you Susie.

Folks I have another "issue"  Was doing great the first 2 weeks then restarted vigorous exercising (weight training/running etc).  My hunger levels have skyrocketed and I'm craving "the stuff" ( my code for carbs).  Have NOT given in, yet. 

I'm fine when I just walk (3 fastish-5 miles easy pace)or do moderate level calisthenics or even very light weights.  Does this get better?

madoctor,

That used to happen to me shortly after I finished my early morning, daily 5-mile brisk walks.

Cravings can actually be caused by dehydration or the body's increased need for protein after a workout.
Right after your workouts, drink a tall glass of cold (ice) water and a low carb protein shake.
Then, take your shower.
By the time you get out of your shower, you should not have any cravings.

This has worked for me for years! ;D

Tony


What you do today is what matters!

Thanks Tony!

I have been drinking about 100 oz of water everyday because its just become a habit and something I started doing when I was heavier.  I like the idea of a low carb shake.  I usually wait before I have anything until after my shower (and usually get distracted by work).  So I'll try this.

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond.
