    no im not underweight, my bmi is 19.2 :) but i dont want to lose anymore, i just dont want to gain.


    ive decided to still have breakfast, but just try and not have it immediately on waking, because i get up really early, so if i have my breakfast at 6 or 7am, theres no way i can get to midday without wanting more, but if i can hold out till 9.30 or 10ish, then its much easier to get through till lunch. If i dont do that, i can easily eat the equivalent of another small meal at midmorning, which screws my calories up for the whole day.

    Ive just had eggs and toast, and i actually feel much fuller than i normally do after breakfast, so maybe this is the way to go.

    I find just the opposite. If I eat little or nothing at breakfast I tend to feel hungry and can't get enough. When I have a larger first meal, it really helps my hunger the rest of the day. Is there anyone else out there like me?

    I usually eat an apple and have coffee, then a couple hours later eat yogurt with low sugar and am in control the rest of the day. I recently started eating a whole grain hot cereal in the morning and OMG, I was out of control all day and craving cookies and candy that I usually have no proplem staying away from. Im back to my old routine and will see if the diet change in the moring was to blame. It was frightening. :)

    I've lost 50 lbs in the last year and don't wanna go back.
