[QUOTE="jpscloud, post: 1963560, member: 232698"] Thanks Arab Horse! Wow, I have had some fancy meals in my lifetime, but I can honestly say none of them were as good as the one I've just eaten! Some very interesting (and surprising to me) observations from today: Hunger pangs were nowhere near as terrible as I thought they would be. I usually need painkillers late morning or early afternoon, but didn't even think about them today. I haven't felt resentful or deprived at all. I haven't felt that failure was looming over me. I began to feel full just at the end of my meal - this is a big deal because satiety is something I simply don't usually experience, hence the constant eating. I haven't craved carbs, even when I could smell them as others were having toast etc. Two colleagues went out of their way to tell me I was looking really good at the moment and ask what I've been doing! I'm a fat old bat, and wouldn't make much of an oil painting, but the compliments were genuine and so much appreciated. Having "breakfast" hasn't triggered a binge or the urge to graze. [/QUOTE]
