Are you HANGRY (hungry + angry)?
Let me help you with how to battle it.

First, make sure you're not in a huge caloric deficit, but rather keep it 5-30% below your maintenance level (if you don't know this, I can help you out).

Make sure you tick the following boxes because if they're not all ✅️ chances are, you need to fix this first, since it can all lead to an increase in hunger level.
✔️ Enough Protein 🥩
✔️ Sleeping >6h/night 😴
✔️ Hydration 🧋

If you're positive on all the above, then you might use some of the following snacks to fight those cravings.

Aim for low/no calorie foods and beverages, so you don't kick yourself out of energy targets. Plain coffee and tea can help in suppressing hunger.

• Crunchy vegetables like: Cucumbers, Carrott, Celery, Peppers... dip them in 20-30g of Low Fat yoghurt or houmous.
• sugar-feee jello,
• sugar-free pops,
• air popped/ fat-free popcorn (20-30g)
• low-fat cottage cheese with blueberries (my favourite)
Are just some of my personal favourites!

Share with me what's your personal low calorie treats, and how you are managing your hunger?!
