Is it true that we start loosing muscle whenever we get and stay hungry for a while?

A trainer at my gym told me so, he said that when bulking I should never be hungry because then I could start losing muscle.

No some people are always hungry. Your body adapts to what you feed it. I think he is trying to help you but the advice is not universal. Plan your diet out and you don't have to think about if you are losing muscle or not because you know you're not.

make sure you drink lots of water throughout the day, your stomach cannot differentiate between food or water, it only knows when it is full or empty. drinking water regularly throughout the day will keep you from feeling hungry too soon before your scheduled meal time.

Just don't get hungry... Eat every 2 hrs whether hungry or not.

Good advice. Eat small portions and you will be just a bit hungry every 2 hours.

That guy's heart is in the right place, but his logic isn't .

Going on ketosis you can be somewhere around 1000-1500 calories under your daily total and not feel hungry through the whole day. While it isn't the smartest thing to do at all mind you, there isn't any hunger associated and you would probably lose good chunks of muscle mass if you didn't do that diet correctly even in the absence of hunger.

thanks for the answers, now i understand it.
