Great, Rachel!  I do want to get to the point, though, where you can order take out with confidence that you are only going to eat 5 bites of it.  Don’t do it just yet, but at some point you will develop that level of control.

GREAT!!  Whatever you are doing, keep it up!  You’ve tamed the hunger and everything is downhill from here.

It’s late for me, and I’m just now getting to my messages, but gee–that’s a nice complement.  Thanks!

2nd day in a row of perfect 5 bites! No leg cramps today (so far).  I did notice a slight headache around dinner time, before I ate.

Surprisingly, I am not even hungry this evening.  I did have an altered eating schedule today due to a busy work day.  Meals were at 1pm and 6pm.  I may give that a try tomorrow too, rather than 12 and 4.

So glad to hear of your long-term success!! Thank you for your motivational words!!
