[quote=Anonymous]What kind of exercise do you do? I do cross fit, and generally not only put on muscle and burn calories, but I'm just not that hungry for a while after.

I guess eat about 1500 cal a day during the week (i'm short, 5 2") but I don't diet.  That's plenty of food for me not to be hungry, but I can ruin it all with an ill timed margarita !

Breakfast #1. water, coffee, and then a green smoothie (pineapple, kale, ginger, jalapeño, splash of coconut milk)
exercise
Breakfast #2: 1 whole egg and couple egg whites with avocado, sprinkle of cheese, salsa. 
lunch very big salad with real olive oil based dressing, nuts or avocado and one protein. --veggies, grilled chicken and cheese, or veggies, tofu and edamame, or veggies, shrimp avocado, etc.

snack: handful of almonds, maybe a piece of fruit. Or carrots, celery and hummus.

dinner: light. Chicken breast cooked with wild mushrooms, white wine and cream. or shrimp tacos, something tasty and satisfying but not heavy. I make sure there's fat, protein and veggies. I have some dark chocolate for dessert. small glass of wine.

I GO TO BED EARLY. I used to stay up until 11 or midnight and around 9:30 or 10 I'd get hungry after a light dinner. Go to bed early, wake up early, drink coffee/smoothie, exercise before I have time to hit snooze. It is the ONLY way for me to do it and I feel healthy the rest of the day and honestly, morning exercise kills my appetite for a couple hours later. [/quote]
