MetPro is designed to keep you as satiated as possible while moving you through meal plans. That said, here are a few common habits we see sometimes leading to hunger:
Skipping snacks. This is a big one, and it counts against your daily meal tracking, and for good reason, missed meals will slow your metabolic rate and leave you ravenous.
Not eating enough vegetables. Not only are there allocations for vegetables in MetPro, but also there is an entire list of free veggies that you can add anytime, to any meal. Take advantage of the free veggies and use them as fillers in your meals. Cooked and grilled veggies are also a great way to add bulk to a meal.
Insufficient water intake. Are you drinking enough water? Sometimes failing to drink enough water throughout the day can lead to feeling hungry.
Food selection. Try selecting foods from the food list that are more satiating. Some carb and protein selections provide larger serving sizes than others. This can make a big difference. As you select foods note how much of each option constitutes your allocation. Some options will provide more food volume.
Adjust your protein preferences. If you find yourself struggling with appetite, adjusting your protein preference to a higher level might be a good place to start. You can adjust these preferences in the profile screen.
Lastly, you may be doing all the above things and are just feeling hungry all of the sudden because your metabolic rate is speeding up! Building a blazing fast metabolism is what Metabolic Profiling is all about. If you run out of meals at the end of the day and need more food, add an extra snack! The snack option “appetite control” is a good start. If need be add extra macro’s to your base meals, just don’t forget to log them in the extra food screen.
