Well....It's active

Hi Amy, This board is a great idea. Thank you very much. I am almost 2 years our and I am struggling with hunger ALL THE TIME. This just started happening in the last month or so. I don't eat alot when I eat, but them I am starving in 2 hrs. Is anyone else experiencing this? Terese 8-19-03

I always tell my husband when we go out to eat or we eat at home that even though I don't eat much then, by the time we get home I will be hungry again. But, I do drink with my meals. It's a habit that I just don't seem to be able to break. 2 hours sounds about right. I worry that my pouch will stretch and I'll be as big as I was before. I'm 18 months out and I've gone from 275 to 138. I never dreamed I would be a 8-10 or smaller depending on how things are made. I wanted to have a BMI less than 24, weigh 150 and wear a size 12. So I have had sucesses that I didn't think I would have. Connie

Hi Teresa, I understand the head hunger. I found that I get that way when I give into CARBS. I finally decided to cut them out as much as possible again, and now my cravings are in control. The first week was hard, but after that, I swear I don't crave food as much. I really went very low carb and still eat a lot of protein. I never drink with my meals and wait 1 hour after eating to start drinking my water. I had Dr. Vaughan too! He is GREAT
