It's the new year and time for a new diet

[LSPoorEeyorick]

It's been one month, and I have at least one skirt actually won't stay on my hips anymore.

I realize I didn't post much in this thread initially, but I didn't really want to talk about it until I'd made some progress. I've been eating an average of 1300 calories per day, in 300-calorie small meals every three hours (per my dietician's prior suggestion). The strangest thing has happened. My appetite used to be pretty insatiable. I ate good food, but I ate too much of it. By eating constantly (or, so it must seem to those around me who watch me go to the office fridge every three hours) I have managed to reduce my stomach capacity to such a smaller amount that I can't even finish a sandwich from a restaurant anymore. It's only truly hard if I get off schedule and get hungrier than my stomach can consume (which I try to prevent.) Or if I'm in an emotionally bad place (yesterday, with the bad family news, it was a challenge but I still managed to come in under 1500.)

So. Month two.
