Yay it feels so good when I think of it that way. Thank you! I have found that I'm much less hungry now than I've ever been in my life. I don't want to eat the food everyone else is having. I wouldn't mind a small nibble, but I'm no longer craving food it seems. I don't long for it or think about it when it isn't around. Only when I'm making dinner for my family is when I find it hard going, but if I ignore that it soon passes. Yay! This is the only diet that's ever worked for me and I love that I'm really losing weight. Anything else I tried, I just lost a few pounds even though I'd felt I was making a huge effort. That or other diets allowed to much room for over eating. Slimming world never worked for me, it kept me from gaining weight. So I guess I'll use it when I'm at goal. Also, the speed that the weight comes off makes this diet bareable. Knowing that if I stick to it 100%, I'm only a few months away from losing a huge percentage of weight makes it possible. I'm so happy right now!
