Gaining

Appetite bumps

Anyone notice a sudden increase in appetite while gaining? Like one day you can barely finish a Big Mac, fries and a shake and then a few days later it's not enough?

Some people report these bumps when they hit a "magic" number---200 lbs, 100kg, 300lbs, something like that.

Others report appetite bumps happening in conjunction with decisions about their weight. For example, the decision to gain on purpose (perhaps following an unintentional gain), the decision to gain more than you planned, the decision to go back to gaining after losing or trying to lose.

Have any of these appetite bumps happened to you?

If so:

Of which sort were they? Magic number, decision related, something else?

Did you realize they were occurring right away or only in retrospect?

Were the bumps temporary or permanent changes in your appetite/capacity?

Did you enjoy your new-found ability?

I think if we all understood this aspect of the process better, it would be so much easier for many.
