This is such a weird problem but when I'm hungry I can't stop thinking about it. Like it's hard to explain because it takes over my thoughts and I can't focus on anything else, except this is only when I'm calorie counting or dieting or whatever even when I'm OBJECTIVELY not that hungry. Like maybe at most im kinda peckish but not full blown "hungry" if that makes sense. I find it's a lot easier when I'm not restricting to avoid eating.
It's so hard to explain because I literally can't think of anything else even when I try. Usually it goes in a really bad cycle of: I get hungry, I can't stop thinking of the fact I'm hungry, I keep trying to stop myself from eating because I'm following meal plan or maybe it's like 11 o'clock at night and I already used my calories, and it takes over my brain until I'm binging way too much food.
It's been getting worse I feel because unless I'm doing extreme restrictions (ie no food, no water for several hours), I struggle with any kind of restrictions because of this. It takes over my brain like it's on loop even when I try distracting myself or walking (like I saw some people recommend already on this sub). Walking I found makes it worse because I'll get so focused on my hunger I end up making myself nauseous and throwing up (this is a me problem- I tend to get nauseous/motion sick really easily especially when I focus on something other than the fact I'm walking.)
Any advice?
