    Hey Roguedog, it seems to be a season-change thing for you:

    This being said, snacking is okay, as long as you do it with a purpose!

    I have three two relatively big meals (breakfast and dinner), one lighter meal and at least two snacks every day. That's not abnormal...

    I eat pretty much all day long, everyday. They don't call me the Human Garbage Disposal for nothing. I even have people at work trained to bring in extra food for me.

    I've been carrying a big bag of carrot sticks and snap peas with me and didn't expect I would want to eat them but I can sit there and crunch on them endlessly. It fills the void, tastes ok, and add hardly any calories... I also carry those 100 calorie snack packs with me when I am really craving some sweet or salty carbs. But only one pack or I'll eat whatever I have...

    I noticed a marked increase in my hunger when I first started cycling last year. I felt like I ate ALL the time. I called it "feeding the beast." As my miles have started to increase this year, I find myself being hungry much of the time again. I'm incorporating some snacks into my routine but I'm trying to keep it healthy. I would note that thirst can sometimes translate to hunger so be sure that you're watching your fluid consumption, too.

    Yesterday I noticed that despite eating my usual pre-ride meal, I was hungry on the bike almost immediately. I was rather frustrated in that I ate a pretty big dinner the night before too, and don't know what more I can do. I find it hard to eat a lot in the morning--it makes me kind of nauseous. It's not bad right now since our club rides start at 10, but as they get earlier and earlier, I think it's going to be hard to wolf down more than the bare minimum.

    feelin hungry

    I was finding i was hungry all the time, but when i turned my snacks into mini meals, i was feeling better. that means not eating single foods, (like just an apple), but a carb, a protein and a fat every time. So yogurt with berries and cereal for me.

    I found that helped a lot. also, i wasn't drinking enough water so i put a water bottle every where i "hang out" like by my desk, in my car and by the TV.
