I'm so annoyed with myself. I do fine until dinner time. That seems when i'm so starving? Is this normal? :angry:

    I eat great all day, even dinner, but when that time between dinner and bed...look out! I have no control. It is a struggle every day. It takes will power and distractions to keep focused.

    Are you having an afternoon snack? I used to not eat an afternoon snack and I would be starving at dinner time. Once I added in a fiber rich/ or high protein snack it got a little better. I think some of the problem is breaking the habit of eating huge dinners. I know we used to eat huge dinner portions 8 oz of chicken, 2-3 slices of bread, 1-2 cups of mashed potatos. When we started watching portion sizes, I always felt starving at dinner because I was so used to the huge amount of food I was eating. Now that I am 4 months in, I am no longer starving at dinner time and actually have left overs quite often.

    I have an afternoon snack that usually consists of a piece of fruit or yogurt. I might need to add something that has more fiber in the afternoon. I also wonder if its my "body" being used to eating later in the evening.
