Re: Trying to lose weight -- possible TW for eating disorders?

Low glycemic index foods. Stuff that will stick with you through the day. Oatmeal, whole grains, etc.

Here's the list from Wikipedia, I donno how accurate it is:

Low GI 55 or less:
beans (white, black, pink, kidney, lentil, soy, almond, peanut, walnut, chickpea); small seeds (sunflower, flax, pumpkin, poppy, sesame); most whole intact grains (durum/spelt/kamut wheat, millet, oat, rye, rice, barley); most vegetables, most sweet fruits (peaches, strawberries, mangos); tagatose; fructose

Also, your first meal of the day (whatever time that is), should be a substantial one, and split the rest of your meals up into staggered snacks (healthy ones) over the day/evening. It seems counter-intuitive, but days I eat a big breakfast, I can literally skip supper and not notice it. Days I cut back/skip breakfast? I don't notice it at lunch, for some reason, but by suppertime I'm ready to EAT ALL THE FOOD.

I've heard this advice a lot and for a lot of people it works, but for some reason when I have a big breakfast I seem to get hungry even sooner. Now I have a moderate breakfast with coffee or tea, then lunch and dinner with a snack at night.

To OP - it might take some experimenting but try switching your meals/snack schedules around to see what works best for you. Anon above me works well with a big breakfast, but that makes me super hungry - it's all about finding what works with your body.

Could depend on your age, too? When I was younger, eating a big breakfast dragged me down to the ground, but I always ate a good lunch and huge supper. Now that I'm older, it seems to have switched around on me, and I'm not sure why. *shrug* Whatever works, right? (I'm standard weight/BMI for my height BTW.)

Yes, do experiment, OP, I should have added "this is what works for me now" sorry!

So funny, we seem to be opposites! I used to eat bigger breakfasts and it would energize me, but alas no longer. So funny how bodies are different. I'm about 20lbs overweight for my height, so idk if that might have something to do with it, but I think generally it's just how I work now.

Nayrt

I find that eating a large breakfast keeps me going a long time and I wind up eating a late lunch. The late lunch leads to not being very hungry by supper, so I eat a small supper.

It might depend on what you eat for breakfast as well, so playing around with foods and different carb/protien ratios may help, too.

This. It's also good for balancing your blood sugar, so you might end up feeling better as well.
