Hello, My name is Cyndi and I am in week two of a Fat to Skinny life. I read to book 2 years ago but had family challenges in my life that superseded my need to be healthy for others need to be taken care of. Now I am focusing on my health. I have allergies to tons of stuff and gluten issues as well so I really like what you say about only eating when hungry, I was so tired of trying to plan 3 meals a day plus two snacks, that would fit with in my guidelines.
I started with breakfast and then waited to get hungry like you said in the book, it seems to me that after my cup of coffee in the morning, I am not hungry until around noon. I will then go the rest of the day without being hungry until late evening if at all.
Should I eat at least 2 meals a day? 1 meal and a snack? or really wait until I am hungry. I have been doing a lot more moving in the evenings than I have been used to this week trying to get the home ready for an appraisal. But for the last three days I haven't lost a speck of weight. I am eating only protein and veggies. My protein is in the form of chicken, pork or beef. There will be no legumes for me and I am allergic to soy.
But I haven't been hungry in the mornings until this morning. My blood glucose this morning after my coffee was 96 (yeah) and then at mid morning after part of a protein drink it was 86. Should I keep eating just when hungry?
