I am hungrier the day after I have lost a pound. Don't know if it is psychological or what but it often happens. I think that is too soon to be hormones.

Call it what U will, all food controlling is DIETING . My one and only exception to this is to try to at organic, fat free orextremely lowfat , whole grain and very high fiber unprocessed and fresh .
But i eat a LOT !
Dieting by all statistics puts weight ON you long term EVERY SINGLE TIME U DO IT !!
is it THAT important to lose five lbs NOW only to gain ten LATER as a result ?
the only way I know to permanently reduce the body's setpoint is VERY slowly through building up calorie burning muscle mass . or fairly fast and inexpensively through liposuction by sucking the empty ( and estrogen producing - ( which is a weight gaining HORMONE ) ) fat cells out .
If U want a quick fix ... RUN !!
the body stresses at carrying the excess fat and REDUCES it almost instantly starting with the upper body and waist ...
