No change today. So yesterday I actually felt hunger pangs in the early afternoon. I usually eat later in the afternoon because I eat breakfast late morning. I don't feel hungry all that often....at least not this much. So, I had some popcorn as a snack, then a little later had soup & crackers. I know some say only eat when you're actually hungry but then my eating schedule would be really wonky.
When I made dinner last night, logging in my foods & actually seeing my calories prevented me from overeating. I prepared a box of stir fry rice that had 3 servings. At first I thought I'd half it between hubby & I. The shrimp & veggies I was serving with it were low cal so I thought it would be fine to have 1/2 a serving more. Realizing it was bumping up my total intake for the day too much I settled for one serving....and it was actually plenty. Hubby had seconds & I put the rest in the fridge. It's times like these I appreciate how much using the FS app is helping.

I've noticed the exact same thing with logging on FS. I lost 3 pounds before joining FS, but was at a standstill. When I started measuring and logging on FS, I realized just how much oil I was drizzling on foods (trying to be healthy) or carbs I was eating (rice or quinoa). Like you, my body has started adjusting to a better serving size too. Way to go. PORTION CONTROL works! :)
