32oz steak? Geez. A 8oz is fine, but you should eat some other things with it.

You may also be thirsty.

Drink a lot of water and come back.

fecking hell no thanks think i will stay thin and enjoy.... it must take a while to eat that, with that said

I only eat to survive i do not like food.. if i could live without it then i would

i agree 32 oz is nuts.

i usually get a 14-20 oz depending on mood. 14oz is usually enough. but then we usually have a side and either texes toast or such.
 
Because you didn't get the memo that you should switch to metric. It was supposed to be 0.5 KILO, not 0.5 POUND.
 
Uhm if you aren't eating any potatoes, soup, salad, veggies, and bread, then you will need a heck of a lot more than a little 8 ounce cut of beef.
 
Worms maybe. Dunno, if you have a 50 ft tape worm named Fred in your gut, you probably need to drink more beer to keep it sedated.

I usually feel quite satiated after eating an 8 ounce steak, a salad, a baked potato and downing a few pints of Guinness. If you just had the steak and some beer, it wouldn't be that unusual to be hungry maybe after an hour. I don't know go drink some more beer or something.
 
You feel hungry because beer has a high glycemic index. The carbs in the beer made your insulin shoot up, making you feel hungry.

Just a guess.
 
8oz? That's miniscule. Are you full after a 1/2lb burger? No! (Or at least I hope not)

timswim78, drinking beer with food decreases my ability to eat... beer makes me feel full.

i get full (sometimes) with 1/2lb burger. of course i have a bun, lettuce etc.

a 8oz steak and no sides is not much food at all.

Poor fella. You're missing out on one of a short life's great pleasures.

You may feel full while you are eating it, but once the insulin levels rise, you will feel hungry again.
 
Meat alone (especially 200g) will never fill you up. Next time, eat it with some potatoes/rice/bread/etc on the side.
