I started a new diet. Why am I always hungry now?!

First, you do need a little saturated fat in your diet. You shouldn't be getting full, you should be getting to the point of satiation (basically non-hunger). In all likely-hood, you're getting much fewer calories on your new diet. Fruits have very few calories and low/no fat diets tend to mean other foods with very few calories. You will obviously be more hungry when intaking fewer calories.

I'd recommend making a calorie sheet. Write down the calorie amounts for everything you eat and drink all day. Don't leave anything out that's not water. Then, use an online calorie counter to figure out what you need per day to stay exactly where you are and compare it to how much you're intaking. For a weight loss diet, your daily intake should be about 500-1000 less.Health Question & Answer

I'm not a not in the medical field, but I'd say it's probably because your body is use to ingesting such oily, sugary, fatty foods, that it doesn't register the healthy foods you are eating now as a satisfying meal (Not to scare you, but almost like drugs maybe.?). I'd also say that oily foods tend to make you feel heavier in the stomach after eating them, hence you may feel satisfied or full after a fast food meal. This is because most junk food contain many ingredients that make it hard for the food to be digested in the stomach. I'm not totally sure if I'm right (I wouldn't be suprised if I wasn't), but I believe this is the issue (from what I've learned , first hand, about fast food and healthy food).Health Question & Answer

No, you are fine. It's because you have been living off of crap food and your body doesn't know how to react to good food with good nutritional value. You might also feel really sick in the up coming days, like head aches, stomach aches, nausea and so forth. It's your body adjusting to new food. It's like a drug addict who is physically addicted. When you stop the drugs your body doesn't know what it's like without them and gets all out of wack. Give it a week or 2 and your body will start to appreciate the new found nutrition. There is nothing medically wrong with you.Health Question & Answer
