Why Am I So Hungry All The Time?

Why Am I So Hungry All The Time?

If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “Why am I hungry again already?” — you’re not alone. Hunger is one of the most misunderstood signals in health and wellness, and it’s often treated as something to ignore, suppress, or “power through.”

But here’s the truth: hunger isn’t the enemy. In fact, being able to feel hunger is a sign that your body is communicating with you. Never feeling hungry at all isn’t a badge of honor — it can actually be a sign that your body’s natural cues are out of sync.

What 1500 Calories Looks Like

The goal of this post is to give you a practical, real-life look at what 1,500 calories can actually look like on a plate. Calories get talked about a lot, but without context, they can feel abstract and confusing — especially if you’ve never tracked before or aren’t sure where to begin.

Rather than focusing on numbers alone, I’ve put together a sample day of meals based on foods I genuinely eat. This isn’t a rigid plan or a recommendation for everyone — it’s simply an example to help you visualize how 1,500 calories might be distributed across a balanced, satisfying day of eating.

When mornings feel busy—or your appetite feels a little unpredictable—having a simple, nourishing breakfast you can adapt makes all the difference.

No More Dieting (do this instead)

No More Dieting (do this instead)

Dieting is exhausting.

When most people think about dieting, they think about restriction. Rules. Good foods and bad foods. Starting over on Monday. And the truth is that all of those things have kept us stuck and in the grips of diet culture for way too long. One thing I say to our health coaching and retreat guests all the time is that restriction doesn’t equal health. In fact, it often creates the opposite — a cycle of guilt, shame, frustration, and disconnection from your body.

20 Simple Ways To Get Back On Track With Your Diet

20 Simple Ways To Get Back On Track With Your Diet

Here’s that I tell our health coaching clients and retreat guests repeatedly - This is life, and it’s meant to be lived. That means that life comes with happy occasions, celebrations, holidays, birthdays, and vacations.

Enjoying food, celebrations, travel, holidays, weekends away, and special moments is not failure—it’s part of being human. Overindulgence happens. It doesn’t mean you’re “off track,” broken, or starting over from scratch.

The real skill is learning how to return to balance without guilt or extremes.

A simple, sustainable way to stock your kitchen for energy, satiety, and results

A high-protein, low-carb approach doesn’t have to feel rigid or restrictive. At its best, it’s about prioritizing protein, keeping blood sugar steady, and choosing foods that leave you feeling satisfied and energized—not deprived.

This way of eating works especially well for busy schedules, appetite regulation, body recomposition, and weight loss support. And like anything sustainable, it starts with setting your kitchen up for success.

The GLP-1 Grocery List: Foods That Support Appetite, Energy & Long-Term Success

Starting (or continuing) a GLP-1 medication can bring up a lot of questions around food. Appetite changes, fullness kicks in faster, and sometimes the desire to eat at all feels…different. Because of that, grocery shopping can feel confusing at first.

This is where intention matters more than perfection.

A supportive GLP-1 grocery list isn’t about “diet foods” or rigid rules. It’s about choosing foods that work with the medication — helping you maintain muscle, keep energy steady, support digestion, and build habits you can rely on long after the medication.

Think of this as a foundation. You don’t need everything at once. Start where you are.

Weekly Wellness Reset: Nutrition, Movement & Metabolic Health

Here’s what’s been on my mind — and what’s fueling this week’s wellness reset. I want to dive into a bit more about what metabolism actually is. A common theme I see with our clients is the belief that metabolism is something very simplistic: calories in versus calories out. But it’s so much more than that.

Health isn’t simplistic. Weight loss isn’t simplistic. And your body certainly isn’t simplistic.

This week’s wellness reset is focused on fueling your body for overall health and reframing the way we think about metabolism.
