[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 677867, member: 17461"] I've read that as our metabolisms change from diets once heavy with sugar and carbs to a healthier balance, we will feel like we are starving. Because of what we ate, our insulin levels were set to cope with large influxes of sugar, our fat storing mechanisms were set to cope with lots of fat and excess calories and so on. When you feel hungry, that is what is happening. Your body is saying ~ "Wait! I have all this delicate apparatus set up to deal with the sugars and fats and starches we loved more than our healthiness. I am not changing to normal metabolism until I am sure we aren't going to need these coping mechanisms." It's a good thing, to feel hungry. It means you've been sticking to your diet, and that your body will soon adjust. Physiologically, it was very expensive for your body to devote energy to coping with the sugars and fats we took in. Those coping mechanisms for metabolizing fat and sugar and starch will take time to reset. Very happy for you both. You go, girls! :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
