I'm so excited to have broken through the 130 pound barrier and then to keep going! One thing that I think has helped is that I have an appointment 3 times a week to work out with weights, and it's at 8 am. I just don't have time for breakfast before that (although you bet I get my coffee), and when I get back from exercise I just don't feel hungry. On Sundays I rush to feed the dogs, take one for a walk, get cleaned up and go to church. I don't have time for breakfast then either. That's 4 whole skipped meals each week (except for the coffee and a small bit of apple I share with the dogs each morning). For the other meals I just eat my usual small balance meal. I feel good. Sometimes I feel hungry, but amazingly sometimes it doesn't bother me at all. I splurged on some forbidden food and wine yesterday as a reward, but stayed well below my RDI. I can do this!
