Okay I am just full of questions tonight

I am on day 7 of Phase I and for the last 2 or 3 days have no appetite - I have to force myself to eat my 5 meals a day - I am not sure if this is because the meals feel so filling to me because I am eating the right foods?

The first 3 days were not like this I had cravings and was hungry and then once it passed I had no appetite

anyone else feel a loss of appetite?

Should I force myself to eat the snacks even though my stomach feels full?

Thanks!

Nubby, it'll pass, believe me. The same thing happened to me, and to some of the others here. Just don't starve yourself. You need to eat a full days worth of calories.
But no, don't force yourself to eat.

nubby.. i agree dont force it i too felt that way i didnt force myself i just ate few bites if not real hungry ... iam on phase 2 i dont wiegh myself i go by feel and how i look so when we did our craft show last weekend it had been a few months since i saw these fellow crafters.. the first person who saw me says ohhh myyy you have lost about 40 pounds... NOT!!! but sounded good .. i loved it and then all wekend lots of great compliments one lady said ohhh you better not lose any more.. well i actualy no i have probably 10 or 15 to go and i certainly didnt lose 40 but i have lost some and i will keep going!!! but anyway that was nice cuz ya know how slow it comes off i wondered if i had lost enough someone would notice!!! fun!!! jules

thanks ellis and jules

i honestly want this phase to pass quickly because i really am enjoying the foods i am cooking on this new woe and also i don't like to not get my full amount of calories in per day - i have a feeling my metabolism is already slower than molasses and i don't want to slow it down anymore

jules you must have felt amazing at the craft show - way to go!
