									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m pleased, but I&#8217;m also a realist.  You SHOULD be hungry, a lot of the time, the first couple of days on this diet.  It&#8217;s all good, and it&#8217;s just hunger.  However, the excitement of moving forward and of becoming truly skinny and healthy may override the hunger at first.  Great.  Go with it!!  <img src='https://theslimmingstation.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_good.gif' alt=':good:' width='26' height='23' class='wpml_ico' /> </p>
