Ugh, this is how I feel. Menopause caught up with me this year. I would be happier and more comfortable five pounds lighter. But it is TOUGH. I'm 5'5" and 125 now ... thought 120 was the line I'd never cross. Ha!

It might be categorize as a brunch time on the weekends but...is that a snack? At 10:30, it should be a piece of fruit if you need it, otherwise, drink alot of water until the actual lunch. And lunch can not last for 2 hours (that means you shouldn't be Eating for 2 hours).
Between your lunch and dinner, it should be 1-2 fruits/snacks and maybe that Small piece of veggie pot pie. Emphasize small as in 2-3 spoonful-regular size spoon, not that giant spoon you use.



Oh dear. The point went right over your head, it seems.

I think the issue with the last 5 is that the amount of effort to lose the last five is exponentially harder than the first 5 or whatever.
