[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a pp who does this long term.  I know there are folks who this is what they have done a lot of their life.   But, just wanted to note that this was not natural at all for me at first - I wasn't one who skipped breakfast - ever!    I was one of those people that had to eat breakfast  or would  feel horrible - often Hangry.    I also liked a late snack a little too often - though I didn't need to physcially.

After months, your body re-adjusts and it all becomes more natural.  Blood sugars even out, so I feel so much better and you don't ride that blood sugar roller coaster.   You stop craving breakfast physically.  I still crave snacks at night, but I think that is more a mental thing after a tough day than a physical thing.  Again, the clock makes it easier to mentally shut that craving off.     I can eat a light breakfast socially without issues (though stay away from heavy carbs , etc).  - so its not black or white and you can re-adjust quickly.

This is all true for me as well. I don’t get that roller coaster hungry feeling anymore. It’s very easy for me during the week. I’m a preschool teacher who is constantly busy until 1:30. I’m not even always hungry then but I eat because it’s my break. I’m more flexible on weekends. I eat a later dinner on Friday and Saturday,  maybe brunch on Sunday. I lost about 25 over the first 9 months and have held steady. If I watch what I eat more I could lose but it’s been a stressful year and my eating has been out of control. [/quote]
