    I'm an early riser so first pack is usually before 7am, or sometimes it'll be a shake when I get to work about 8ish if I just forget to have one like this morning (never thought I'd forget to eat!!). Next one about half 12 to 1ish, 3rd around 6 to 7pm, 4th around 9 or so. These are rough times cause often I do just totally forget so second pack might be around 3 on some days!
    Pondering the future... how to get fitter... how to maintain... how to be a size 12 forever...

    Normally have my first pack between 12 and 2, as I'm not hungry so it doesn't really matter! I prefer to have extra in the evening as that is when I get bored and munch!
    13.5lbs down 31lbs to go to first goal

    I like to leave them as late as possible as I know I struggle more in the evenings. I have my first at lunch time, so a bit after 12pm, then next when I finish school (I'm a teacher) at about 4ish whilst I'm doing work, then the next two whenever I need them in the evening. I sometimes struggle to get a 4th in doing it that way though but other times I'm really thankful for that 4th pack around 9 o'clock when the munchies set in!

    Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
    Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off of the goal.
    We would accomplish more things if we did not think of them as impossible.

    Lost just under 3 stone on various diets in 2011-2012.
    Restarting Slim and Save Jan 2013 to lose the rest!

    When I was doing the diet I'd have then roughly every 4 hours - so say 7:30 / 12 / 5 / 9. I think part of my problem before the diet was that I would skip breakfast and often skip lunch too if I was busy. That meant that by dinner time I was starving and would eat lots of bread to fill me up. I saw the diet as a chance to stop abusing my body like that and to get into good habits for the end. So I trained myself to have breakfast and lunch and I continue doing that now. I see it as respecting my body. Also, I have tyoe 2 diabetes and I suspect that it's better for my sugar levels to eat regularly.
    Reached goal of 130 lbs to lose.

    On maintenance I'm a little higher than I would like to be...

    You could do half a pack at a time. Or you could use drinks - such as a savoury drink like marigold bullion - I used that type of thing to fool myself into thinking I'd had another soup. It worked well on those days that I felt I needed something more.

    Doing this worked quite well for me when I was doing Slim and Save previously.

    I have my packs as and when I need them after 11am. I can't stomach anything in the morning.
