Those of you on T: do you eat more now?
I've been on T for nearly two years and my food consumption has gone through the roof. I could eat all day and night. (It helps that I'm skinny!) Maybe it's just because I'm physically bigger now, but it seems like I'm eating all the time. Anyway, I have to go get breakfast at the dining hall. Mmmmm, bacon.
I haven't noticed an increase in my actual food intake, but have noticed that my hunger pains are FAR more severe than they used to be. Before, if I was hungry it was just an irritating growl or something, but now...it feels like I'm wasting away and DYING of starvation. heh.
Yep I eat more but dont think its the T. Think it's b/c I exercise a lot :laugh:
i've been on T almost three weeks and i've noticed an increase already. I'm eating everything in sight.
Oh god, I hope not. I already eat like a horse.
I didn't notice an increase overall, just in craving more protein. It's hard to make myself eat my veggies some days.

Exactly the same here buddy...
I read the topic title and my stomach grummbled!
T boosts metabolism (compared to estrogen),
but its mostly because of increased muscle mass that your metabolism
will increase.
I can eat 2500-3000 calories per day without gaining weight,
that's a lot of food.
My mother eats 1000 less to keep her weight stable.
