The more I eat, the hungrier I get - odd?

How much time between meals?

2.5 - 3 hours, never more then 3.

My guess would be that increasing your carbs has resulted in greater peaks and troughs in blood sugar levels due to insulin release. This will cause feelings of intense hunger.

Very possible since carbs have gotten the biggest boost in my diet.

I have the same problem. I just try to get water in when I get hungry. I also have a couple peanuts but somtimes it makes me more hungry.

Water has ALWAYS been a problem for me. I don't drink enough as it is - maybe this can help me!

You have to stop eating shit food. You are insulin sensitive and you need to eat very low gi carbs. Ever see fat people eat? They eat tons of food and can still eat and eat and.... Just stop it where it starts. You cheat, then fall off completely. You have had the same pattern for years now and all you have to do is break it down. You know, this eating would come in handy later though. If you took the time and had patience to let yourself grow to as big as you could be, then ran a cycle to get bigger, you could eat a ton of calories without gaining bad weight. Some cardio and intense workouts on a regular schedule would keep you lean and mean. Problem is, you never get past a month or two.

Dude, it's not even the shit food i'm talking about. I'm saying that since i've increased my GOOD calories (i.e. my diet), i've gotten hungrier. The shit eating has really only been on weekends, not that i'm saying that's ok, just saying it hasn't been constant or during the week, therefore I don't think it's responsible for this hunger.

I'm saying your food choices in your diet must not be the best. From my perspective it is either
1 an insulin problem
or
2 a green problem
Those are the only things I can think of. If you let your body get back to a higher bf % then your body will regulate things differently. In my experience it seems that when people get larger the body actually switches to some sort of a fat storage priority mode. It's really weird and not explained anywhere to my knowledge.

What's a 'green' problem?

When you say people get 'bigger', you mean bodyfat wise?
