It's lunchtime but I am not hungry yet

I am trying to hold off eating until I actually feel hunger not just when the clock tells me it is time to eat. If I ate now, I might get hungry again in a couple of hours, before it is actually dinner time. I would like to eat now, because I am not actually doing anything else at the moment..but it seems better to wait. Do you try to wait until you are actually hungry when you eat, or are you more of a clock watcher?

I try to wait, but sometimes I eat way too much. Other times, I feel as if I eat way too little.
Really, my stomach only growls about once or twice a day and usually at night..

I rarely let myself get hungry enough for my stomach to growl. I usually eat when I am starting to feel hungry or my stomach feels empty, or I watch the clock. Usually I am hungry now...but not at the moment.

@snowy22315 I found myself eating a little too much over the weekend.. Just for the sake of boredom. I hate doing that.

if I eat just two meals, I always snack in between meals..so it doesn't really work for me.

I will have something small if I am hungry before meal time. I seem to get hungry between lunch and dinner a lot but I do try to wait then...unless I am starved.

@snowy22315 I often drink a glass of water if I feel I am starving, it's enough to make my stomach keep quiet.

I think it really depends on how many calories you consume I mean if you are eating spoonfuls of ice cream, peanut butter or having baked goods even if your surviving is fairly small you could still gain weight I think.
