  • So quick question. Recently i have been doing a LOT of exercise from walking 10 miles a day to heavy weighs. I have taken my foot off the gas to give my body a little breathing space and give me time to do other things. One of the benefits ive found is that my body fat has dropped nicely.

    Now my issue is my body is craving the same volume or more of food it had before while i was training hard and instead of being 'out in the field' im now lying on bed eating everything in sight.

    Is there any way to bring my cravings in line. I know i dont need anywhere near as much as i did before. I am in good shape. So other than feeling like im constantly starving, what can i do? Or do i switch to limited food supply mode which will intensify my cravings?

  • Personally I find a ketogenic diet works best for me in these situations as the body stops craving the glucose / carbs and will instead crave protein and fats, both of which are difficult to eat a huge quantity of (for me at least), I also fast till lunchtime - this way i find i stay satiated with two massive meals each day, until lunch i drink Black coffee and Green tea (cold) and plenty of water

    Failing this keep the diet the same and think about utilising fluids a bit better - keep water to 5l a day minimum and drink green / mint tea between meals to keep the stomach ticking over.

    or... drugs
