[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 5'7 and 120 lbs. Not sure if I qualify as a "skinny minnie" in your eyes because I'm certainly not as thin as Kate Middleton but I would say slender.

Anyway, I do count calories. I know it's not true for everyone but the stuff that people say about it being "90% diet" is true for me.[/quote]

Me again. Unlike the PPs, I do eat. I have coffee with milk and sugar every day (usually 3). Cookies, chocolate, pie, fruit, etc. I have a sweet tooth. But it's a balance.[/quote]

+1. And similar size as PP.

What I see as normal food is probably "diet" portions food to you.  I still eat cookies and other goodies, but I make up for it by eating less at other times.  A very tipical lunch for me is PBJ on a smaller bun, a slice of cheddar, an apple, a glass of skim milk, and a few chips.  For breakfast, I eat a fluffy eggo waffle, a Greek yogurt and a glass of water.   I actually like this stuff!  It's not deprivation.

For dinner, it's a pretty normal meal:  meat, some sort of starch, and salad or veg, plus skim milk.  ( Sometimes dessert is a couple of cookies that I made, or a square of dark chocolate).  I am full after dinner, but I might be a little hungry before bed if I really thought about it...but I don't.   I never eat after dinner...again, not out of depriving myself...it's just not part of my routines.  I don't eat from 7 pm until about 8 am.

I am full after every meal, but don't think to eat between meals.   I think that's probably the biggest thing.
