    In the beginning I was hungry but it did get easier. I dealt with it by drinking a lot and spacing my calories out to include three meals and three snacks. Basically eating smaller throughout the day.... Low calorie/high volume foods are your friend.

    Another approach that works for me is intermittent fasting. I've found that if I don't have anything besides coffee in the morning (gotta have my coffee!), then have a moderate lunch, and bigger dinner with room left for evening snacking, I go to bed pretty well full. That full feeling can generally get me through until lunch the next day. Doesn't work for everyone, but it might be something to play around with.

    Keep at it. It does get easier. :smile:

    The first week was brutal (I was on 1600). Then it got better although I think I thought about food for a solid month. Like obsessively. Six months in and it's a lot easier.

    Easiest way to avoid it is distraction. When you're busy at work you probably don't even have time to think about food.
