Thanks all, I do drink lots of coffee in the morning. Looks like I will need to change what I eat and see if adding some protein helps. I had to have some cheese before lunch or i would have died. Will try something different tomorrow, more fat and protein, thanks.

Not lasting to lunch!

Not even close! Oatmeal about one cup at 8:30am, and ravenous by 11! This wont work since dinner has to be 7pm. I have no real appetite at breakfast but choke down some plain oatmeal on way to work so I can make my three distinct meals. Well this morning I was literally shaky hungry within 2-1/2 hou...

I"m also going to follow this. I am thinking that for some people, 5 or 6 hours between meals just isn't going to work, ever. that their system is such that splitting the food up into 4 meals works better. You should never wait so long to eat that you begin feeling weak or dizzy, no matter if it's 4...

They are fat because they are lazy, don't deal with emotional issues (once in a blue moon it's a legit medical condition) and eat way too much calorically thanks to their McDiet.
