having some trouble losing weight. I am 180 lb and want to lose like 15 pounds ideally, but would be satisfied with 170 i think if enough of it were muscle.
Basically I think the trick to losing weight is to learn how to live a little hungry. The problem (i suspect with others as well) is that when i get hungry I get headaches. If i sleep half a third of my life, I really would prefer half of the other 2/3 not to be completely miserable but that's what happens. Besides giving headaches, being hungry is constantly distracting and I can't afford to be distracted and in pain while at work (i work in healthcare and without really explaining what i do, there's a possibility someone could die if I make a mistake).
How do people cope with this? does this eventually go away? do the hunger pangs and headaches dissipate when leptin levels are finally corrected (wouldn't this take months?)
I realize this is a shitty thread, but this board seems a bit dead so does anyone have any input?
