Finally not hungry

[Pammela]

Today was day five, third VLCD, I am doing the rx Shots through my doctor and the last coule days have been intense. I was SO SO hungry. But happy to say I'm not starving anymore. The problem is in my head, I could totally devour a whole pizza if I'd let myself but I will not. I am so determined to lose this weight that has been on my since the birth of my son 4 years ago. I often wonder why in the world it's been so hard to get my eating and and self control back in check. This diet is helping me learn that I can eat a lot less and be ok. I really turned into an emotional eater and really realize now that I put too much time and thought into food. I am down 5 pounds from my start weight, but still have a long road ahead, I have over 45 pounds to meet my goal but each day at a time. I do feel a little deprived can't eat like everyone else, but seeing the scale finally start to move down is a huge help in gaining self control.

So glad to hear this about you. I am learning so much about myself also through being on this protocol. I want this protocol not to be just about the number on the scale but something I can continue to do for the remainder of my life, eating with control.
