My signal that I better eat....Do you have one?
It seems if I stay on my routine of eating every "X" amount of hours I do great. I still dont really have hunger or stomach growling, nothing like that. I know when I dont feel good, I dont care to eat. I have really not been feeling good lately with all the fibromyalgia stuff. I know that I BETTER get some food in me when I get nausiated. When I was pre-op that used to be my signal too. If its been too long since I last ate I will all the sudden feel like I'm gonna puke. So, for some people the nausea is good, if you dont eat you can get queasy too. Sometimes you just have to figure out what your body is trying to tell you!
I only strive to be, the kind of person my dogs think I am! 
Of the choices we are given, it's no choice at all....

I get a slight runny nose when my tummy is full enough, had the same signal with my band. I can empathize with the not feeling well. The last 2 days I have felt like doing nothing. Crying for no reason. Mine is related to my herniated disc, which causes pain in my right leg (hip to ankle). I have been pain free in my leg & med free since my surg 3/7/11. Out of the blue and for no particular reason my pain started up again Tuesday. It hurts no matter what I do, started back on my meds (Neurotin) yesterday. Have a call into doc for a rx for muscle relaxer. It has zapped all my energy. Only eatin cause I have too. I am eating about every 3-4 hrs.

I didn't have consistent "you should eat" signals (still don't to be honest) but some of the more obvious ones ....
If I start getting muddled in the head, or nauseous, or shaky, or sweaty, if I suddenly wonder "what's wrong with me?" then my blood sugar is crashing and it is time to get some food in my system asap.
That's my only signal.
