Post your diet.
Post a sample day/week of training

Hunger has a few mechanisms...lets see if we can spot one.

Sounds like you do not eat sufficient carbs to feed the body.

In a weight loss scenario like yours one might expect hunger...

You lost 15 pounds...that is a lot of weight.

you should switch to building muscle for a bit to get the body back in balance if you want to lose more.

What are your stats.

Do you get enough water?

Do your weight lifting before you do cardio.

Do 5-7 minutes of so of carido just to get your heart rate up and warm up before!
Then resistance train!
Then your Cardio.

You need to introduce some variation to th cardio.
Switch to HIIT cardio (explained in through a link to an 8-week progression in the losing fat thread)

As for resistance training...how about changing to a more focused plan to get your body better at burning fat?
Take a look at the 3-day training link at the end of the losing fat thread.

If you miss allot of sleep you have hormones in your body that are trying to help you cope wit that...and those hormones are stress hormones...the short story is they can lead to low blood sugar and hunger.

Lets look a few other things:
GREEN TEA ( DIET ) OR ENERGY DRINKS ( MONSTER NO -CARBS )
These are garbage and you should think about cutting them if your goal is to be leaner and feel better.

Green tea is great. Brew your own and then chill it with lemon

SNACKS : FRUIT ( APPLES & ORANGES
OK...you need to read the losing fat link in my signature...instead of snacks we recommend small meals.
Complete, small meals. 5-6 a day is good... lets get thme to be more supportive of your goals!

Both of those will also cause a blood sugar crash which is what makes you hungry!
I won't go into the chemistry at the moment!

But what you can do is make some small changes and then you should see the hunger stop!

Read up!

Ask any questions after!
