I was 226.8 this morning. That's a 5 lb loss since last Thurs. I may have finally figured this out. I love breakfast. It's my favorite meal of the day. I have been eating breakfast within 30-45 minutes after waking up, as recommended, even though I'm not really hungry then. I've been complaining for over a year now that I will be fine all day, on plan eating, then evening hits and around 9 or 10 p.m., I get ravenous. I eat, or I can't sleep.
This week, I was so distracted in the morning, I didn't get around to eating until around 11-12 in the morning. Because of this, my meals have still been spaced out normally, but my last meal has been falling after 8-9 p.m. The first few mornings were just forgetfulness, then I noticed It felt comfortable and started doing it on purpose. The upshot of this is, instead of being ravenous at 9-10 p.m., I actually have to add food to meet my calorie and nutrition goals. The crazy cravings have even stopped. I went to the store yesterday and didn't buy one thing I shouldn't! (I have to admit, the Bailey's Irish Cream Truffels in the Christmas aisle were tempting. LOL!)
I'm going to continue doing this for a while and see what happens. If success turns out to be just a schedule shift, how cool would that be? Our bodies are strange and wonderful things!
I'm off to get my coffee and check up on my buddies.
Ta!
