Still full after 3 hours

[imported_dunhoonK]

Even after 2.5-3 hours, I can still feel the past meal laying around my stomache    
Past meal I had:
2 slices of wheat bread / peanut butter
Oatmeal
Banana
4 egg whites , 1 egg yolk drenched with 2.5 tbl spoons of olive oil
2 glasses of OJ
Is it possibly because I'm eating too much for only one meal?
My daily caloric need is 1600 calories (maintain)
Thanks in advance!

Then why do you have to eat it all at the same time? Just divide your daily amount of food to smaller meals like 5-7 times a day. Simple as that

i agree with eating 7 meals! because of my high metabolic rate, my maintainance is at 2600... eating too much in a meal will really make me feel sick! my meals are about 2 hours and 30 minutes apart. i suggest you do what tcup said.

Ive gota related question...

I always feel sick after my breakfast (porridge and protein shake). This happen to anyone else???

Hope I havnt got morning sickness, dont think my waist line can take another kid (get it... im a boy..hehehe). Questions serious tho

Could be the protein shake, sometimes ingesting a lot of protein at once can cause problems. You may need to drink the shake more slowly, or dilute it some more. Also, I think the type of protein may matter, not sure on that one though.

That's a lot of food. I doubt that there is anything unusual about you still feeling full hours later.

1) I wouldn't worry about eating later.
2) Eat less more often if eating frequently is important to you.
