[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just started tracking my calories and I get SO hungry on 1400-1500 cals a day, I can't imagine going down, and I do focus on fiber/protein/healthy fats.  For lunch I just had 2 hard boiled eggs mashed with 1 tbsp organic mayo on one slice sprouted grain bread, a whole pear and a dark chocolate mint thing. I swear my stomach is still growling and I am not a huge person. I'm envious of those who can do it without gnawing their arm off! [/quote]

I understand what you're saying PP.  However it is doable, and you really do work through the hunger.  There is something interesting about working through the hunger and knowing that I'm done eating for the day.  The hunger comes in waves, and it's not like it builds and builds.  I have some tea or water and it passes.  Yesterday I did the 500 calories at lunch.  I started to get hungry again around 6pm and worked through it.  I found that exercising actually helps suppress the hunger, so I went running last night (about 3 miles) and felt great.  Drank water, went to be and woke up fine.  I wasn't ravenous and just ate normal breakfast of greek yogurt, some nuts and fruit.

And knowing that the next day I could eat when I wanted also helped.  [/quote]
