Is it normal to feel hungry on a diet?
Depends.It depends
Some hunger can happen when you change how much or when you eat, but feeling ravenous all the time isn’t something you have to push through. It may mean your diet is too restrictive or your meals aren’t keeping you full.
A little hunger between meals can be normal, especially while you’re adjusting to a new eating routine. But being hungry constantly, feeling preoccupied with food, or struggling to concentrate is a good sign that the plan may not be giving you enough to eat.
Meals with protein, fiber-rich foods, and enough overall energy tend to keep you fuller. You don’t have to treat hunger as proof that a diet is working; easing up or choosing a less restrictive approach may make it more sustainable.
