Good for you! I am on week 4 and I have lost 7 lbs so far. I am really excited about it.
I recommend getting on the scale and measuring as well. It is such a motivator for me. That way I have a number for if I feel hungry.
It is amazing how we train yourselves to eat meals and snacks all day. I have so much more time and mental freedom with this WOE. No need to plan what to eat all day- plus, I get to make yummy food for my family and enjoy the food with them at dinner.
Keep in touch and good luck!

Breaking the continuous snacking habit is probably the hardest part (for me) but I've been trying to distract myself by organizing the house. I've been working on the basement for the past 2 days and the moment I found the furnace was a proud one! (I always kind of knew where it was - I just hadn't seen it for months...) Anyway, I digress.

I usually start my eating window (which is approx. 1-6pm - I hate to go to bed with a full stomach) with a big omlette and then have to remember to eat something else before my window closes. I've spent the past 10 years on and off of Atkins and while there's a lot of good things about that diet, I *never* forgot to eat...!
