I tend to agree that it sounds like it might be TOM about to visit.

I also workout (quite a bit) and notice that I am hungrier the day inbetween weight training than I am the actual day I train. During induction I had to slow waaaaaay down on my workouts and then gradually increase them as I felt better. About 4 weeks into Atkins I was about to normal for my workouts pre-Atkins. Rmember your supplements. Make sure you get potassium, calcium, magnesium. And add some L-Glutamine. AND water ... water ... water!

You can get through this tough period. Eat now and once your hunger is under control you can back off on the food intake. Atkins says if you're hungry to eat. Protein and fat worked for me. I ate a lot of meat and cheese and put olive oil on all meats and salads. Avocado is a great source of good fat. Use high fat dressings. Marie's Blue Cheese is great tasting and LC.

Good luck and hang in there. Once your TOM happens both your hunger and outlook will change dramatically. If you have to eat the whole chicken eat it! This will pass.
