I'm Hangry! Aren't I?

United States
July 3, 2018 3:29pm CST
I was sitting here thinking of how hungry I am. I was wondering why that was since I've eaten so much today. So I decided to think about what all I've eaten today and I realize I haven't really eaten much at all. This morning I woke up and poured myself some orange juice and ate a bowl of grapes along with it. Then a few hours later I went by the bank and stopped to get a hamburger and a drink. That's all I've had today and I'm starting to get hungry again. Not sure why I thought I had eaten some great feast. It must be all these cooking videos I've been watching on youtube today. Now what am I going to do about dinner? Am I the only "blonde" here or have you also gotten hungry and thought you surely had a lot to eat today already?

I have forgotten to eat something with protein. When I realize I haven't it is a head slapping moment.

I usually have no problems eating things with protein. I am trying to eat healthier now but it's not always so easy.

When I am very busy I do not realize that I am hungry, this happens many times.

@LadyDuck I have a big water bottle by me at all times. I can go hours without drinking anything but this bottle so close to me reminds me to drink.

I have had moments when I do not realize that I am very hungry whilst being busy but it's not many times. When I was a stock clerk, for instance, my stomach would alert me to being very hungry and I'd have to go and eat or I wouldn't be able to focus on my task.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I have the same problem with drinks, not always I realize that I am thirsty.

I think I will drink some water and eat a small oatmeal cookie to tide me over until we've decided what to eat here.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Oooh I like crab cakes =) Crab meat is good too. I hope you had a good time at the diner if you went!

@infatuatedbby Yeah it was good. One thing I didn't notice (or look for) was whether they had an old time jukebox. Next time I go I will have to see if it is there. One whole section was closed for seating so it could have been in there. They had ice cream on offer at 99 cent for a cone. I was in the mood for a frozen limeade so we went to sonic instead.

Oh those sound yummy! I've never actually had a crab cake though. I've had crab meat but never in a crab cake. I think we are going to go to a restaurant that opened back up a few years ago but we haven't tried again. It's a little 50's diner type place.

It is morning here. I am getting hungry too.
• United States

It is quite early there too. I can't prepare food so soon after I awake. Most of my breakfast meals consist of walnuts and a fruit or a yogurt. If there is orange juice, I of course will enjoy that. I will cook around lunch or dinner but it is far too early for me to operate a stove when I first awaken.

@Marty1 I don't eat much bread product, or I try not to anyway. I go to sleep around 1 am and wake up anywhere from 9 am to 10 am. It used to be that I couldn't eat when I first woke up.. That's back when I was working third. I'd wake up around 3 pm and want to eat dinner a few hours later.

We eat around 5:40 to 6 pm. I usually start to cook around 4:30 or 5:00 depending on what all is involved.

Sometimes if i get extra busy I will also forget to eat. Which is weird.

I have done that before but today I wasn't particularly busy. It is weird how you can be busy and not feel hunger pangs.

I am actually hungry right now and thinking about making dinner !

What do you think you'll make? I ended up eating at a diner not too far from here. We had not been there in years and we were glad we came back. The food was much better than it used to be. I had a meatloaf sandwich.

I had a meatloaf sandwich at a diner not too far from my house. I thought it was my night to choose dinner but it wasn't. Tomorrow I am making Spaghetti.

It's easy to forget to eat when busy.

Very true but I wasn't really all that busy.

Sometimes we don't drink enough and it might be "understood" as being hungry
• United States

This was real hunger though. I have had times when I just hadn't drunk enough and drank some water and it settled me.

Sometimes you just have an appetite. But yes, it doesn't seem like you've had much at all. But certainly watching cooking videos would make me hungry even if I ate.
• United States

I am watching them again today. I've probably had about as much today to eat as I did yesterday. The only difference is I know I"ll be making spaghetti in a few hours.

You could try saying "Hang on Hanger" hehe
• United States
3 Jul 18
Wouldn't really work in the english language. "hanger" is what we call the plastic or wire things we put our blouses and coats on to "hang" in the closet. I think people would get confused if I said "hanger" to mean "hunger anger"

I thought you were just referring to hunger by modifying its spelling a little.......in that sense it could really mean something.
• United States

@Sojourn When I said "hangry" I meant "Hungry Angry." It's a term used here in the US, though I'm not quite sure where it originated. I think it must have come from popular culture.

I had the leftover fish for breakfast and then the leftover cous cous for lunch. I just ate two BBQ chicken roll ups so chances are ill just snack the rest of the day.

It's weird here. If I don't heat up the left overs for everybody then they won't eat them. I have to be the one that says "alright, well I am heating up left overs, who wants some?"
