Today is typical weekend day at our house when our first meal was some kind of brunch at about 10:30ish time frame. At about 4 PM, i got hungry again, but none of the women of my house was (wife, mom, 2 both daughters). I went to the kitchen and ate whatever, and next meal will be dinner at about 7 pm. I know that the dinner will be the next meal for all the ladies of the house.
My real question is - do ladies feel less hungry or can stretch on a meal longer than guys? Is it typical?
Dont know if this is the right forum for this thread. Mods can move please
how often? i feel hungry jab jab mujhe bhook lagtii hai…
i’m diabetic and, as a result, i’ve to watch what i eat and when i eat. i observe strict dietary restriction. i take 6 meals a day but my portion sizes are 1/6[SUP]th [/SUP]of what it used to be.
i control my diabetes with exercise, diet and medication. alHamdolillah, my blood sugar levels are optimal.
I know that the later I eat my first meal of the day the less likely I am to get hungry sooner.
On those days that I have a reasonable breakfast early in the morning, I am hungry within 3 to 4 hours.
I think it has to do with metabolism. I’m not sure if it is a gender thing (which it could well be) or an individual metabolism thing.
I get hungry when I’m at home and I know there’s food in the refrigerator. If there is no food at home I’m usually too lazy to leave the house to get some, unless I’m starving of course. I dropped 5-6lbs after quitting my job. It has to do with me quitting sodas and being too lazy/stingy to buy something. When you’re not making a lot of money you usually ask yourself if that food you’re about to buy is something you need or is it just something that you want because you’re bored.
I don’t get nearly as hungry as hubby does. I don’t ever have to worry about him not eating but he has to worry about me because I literally won’t remember to eat until I get a headache and hunger pangs. Still a fata$$, goddamnit!
P.S. this is the first time I am hearing that women crave food more than men. That is not the norm as far as I know.
Craving does not mean that they get hungry more. it’s just that they are more fond of specific flavors and did types like spicy or ice cream, chocolate etc. I dont remember many men having such fondness
That is what I meant. I am clueless when it comes to what I should eat and he usually knows what he wants because he is craving a certain flavor. “I picture what I am going to eat and imagine how good it must taste and I put it on repeat until I get it”, these are his words. He loves good food and he doesn’t understand why I don’t feel the same way.
I never decide what we should eat because I don’t know what the hell to eat. It’s very rare for me to have cravings unless I am PMS’ing and I think that’s true for a lot of women if not all.
