Hi, am coming to the end of my second week and feel exactly the same, this week seems to be worst than last and my hunger pangs are still there. I find the only thing that works for me is to keep busy, have people round you and try and get out of the house when you can it helps take my mind off it. Early nights help for me too as once I'm in bed I feel yes that's another day done and another achievement and I feel ok. It really is just sheet determination that wi get you through, I have a holiday coming up so that's driving me. Don't give up keep going, hopefully our hunger pangs will pass!!

Whenever I get hunger pangs I try to step outside myself and gauge how hungry I actually am. Every single time it turns out that my belly isn't empty, and I don't need any food, I just want it! Which is what got me overweight in the first place. LT is a great way to break the cycle and really come to terms with bad habits and confort eating. Stick at it, the results speak for themselves!

i know its not easy, i too have taken up food sniffing!!;0)
its really wired isn't it? but on some strange level it helps , do not ask me why i haven't a clue! but i do think my sense of smell has gotten better, i swear my work mate was eating his lunch at his table across from me the other day, and i could smell every last ingredient in his salad roll, and it completly turned me off it, i could smell the butter and mayo and even the roll smelt really sugery.
you know the way they say if you lose a sense, your other senses get better, i think maybe thats what happened.
any diet is hard, i believe i was adicted to food and alcohol of any sort, so its like going cold turkey. but its so worth sticking to this diet, the longer you stick with it the better your will power, will get and you'll be so proud of yourself!! i promise, lots of people have said to me there is no way in hell they could stick to this diet, and that makes me feel so proud of my self. in the first few weeks i was doubting that i could stick to it but im so glad i did cause now im nearly finished!! way hey!!!!
