Hi, I was just wondering if I am alone or what. I seem to get hungrier faster with the more fat I eat at a meal. And I seem to feel kinda cold too. Maybe I am just weird. lol.

thanks

I don't think you are alone. I sometimes feel hungry after eating raw egg yolks, mostly wanting to eat more... I often get very tired after eating them, or raw fish. I usually have to take a nap. It makes me wonder how I could have ever eaten steak or baked chicken without taking a nap.

Then at times, I feel much LESS hungry after eating something with high fat, like an avocado. I have made lunch out of a single avocado, which kept me from getting hungry for about 4 hours. I suppose it just depends.

yes, that can happen if you ingest too little sugar (carbs)
Its best to COMBINE sugars with fat (not just fat, not just sugars)
increase the intake of sugars until it fits you right

yes, egg yolks contain hardly any sugars (just 0.3%)
That is why it is best to mix them through a glass of oj (with sugar if you like)

yes, it depends on how much glucose is available in the blood, and on whether the liver glycogen depot is filled, or not, because liver-glycogen can be converted into glucose when necessary (to fulfil the need for glucose)
