Up until about a week ago, I haven't had much head hunger.  However, now it ha**** me full force!!  I am craving and mourning all kinds of foods :(  Not sure if it's the time of year, something about the 6 month mark, my upcoming birthday, or what, but MAN is it annoying.  Oh well, all I can do is follow my plan, measure my food, eat my protein first, only eat at meal/snack time, and try to distract myself...

Increase your water intake. If it does not stop your cravings, it will flush out the crap you eat (my experience).

I have been having the same issue for the last couple of days, I'm thinking its because my monthly visitor was in town, but still it was a little overwhelming!  Since I have had surgery I had not experienced any head hunger or hunger at all for that matter, so it hit me like a ton of bricks!  Wondering how others dealt with it, upping the water intake is a faboo idea!

FYI, spoke with my bariatrician about my head hunger on Monday, and she said that she has had several people report terrible head hunger between the 6th and 9th months.  Guess I'm not too unuasual :)  Can't wait until this passes!  Whenever I shop, I remind myself "be strong" :)
