First day gone by... not bad. Despite the book saying that you wouldn't be hungry, I was. Strange that a meal plan that only gives you something like 500 calories for the most of the day would say you wouldn't be hungry. It wasn't a pain though, and I know that by keeping blood sugar levels constant, cravings are lessened. No cravings = good control. Dinner came and it actually seemed like a lot of food. Maybe I didn't measure properly. I'll have to watch that, but I feel fine today. I haven't even completely eaten my breakfast yet. Based upon other books I've read, I'll space meals out as evenly as possible. I think there was too much of a break in the afternoon. I think it was nearly 4 hours with nothing. Halfway through I was looking for something so I ended up pushing the schedule by about half an hour the rest of the day.
Summary.. no major complaints and the fact there is a schedule makes life easier for me.
