I've only been on this site for a week, but I've dropped 4.5 lbs and have been feeling really great. Today, I ALMOST fell into my old snacking habits because I was hungry (ok, starving!) even after I'd had lunch and a snack. I haven't really had that problem until today, so I jumped on here and looked at my progress so far, started reading through a few posts and had another small snack, which I ate slowly and drank a lot of water. Was I completely satisfied with my snack and water? No, not really. But I could see "on paper" what I've accomplished so far, and read other people's success stories. I totally lost the compulsion to undo all of last week's hard work with 20 minutes of total calorie and carb loading.

So I survived until dinner time and will still have enough calories left for an after dinner snack.

Sigh.

Crisis averted. Yay me!
