"Followed 100%" isn't exactly correct. For about a week now, I've been watching hunger cues and deciding not to eat until i actually feel hungry. Tuesday I found I was craving steak so we went to the Outback and I had the 8 oz Outback Special, and I have just straight up not felt hungry since then. Yesterday I had four cherries because they were offered by a friend and then one snow pea pod - I expected to eat more but it was so so sweet it kind of made me nauseous so I stopped after the one.
I'm watching really carefully to see if this is a problem or if I'm really just experiencing an adjustment in appetite. Right now at 9AM local I am still not having any kind of hunger or craving whatsoever. If I am experiencing any other adverse affect it is not anything I've been able to notice.
If I rock just a little bit to the left on my cheap-o bathroom scale, I can make it say 230. If I bounce up and down, it settles all the way up at 233, but when I step off it doesn't go down to 0, but rather 2. When I use the little dial to reset to 0 and step back on, it stops just at the 232 line.
232 does not feel like "good" but it does feel like "improvement" and I need to continue to recognize that progress will not be overnight.

I should also note that last night at fencing I did the full group lesson with the teenagers, and while I'm not as fast as them I did the whole thing. Three full hours of non-stop work, without the usual loss of energy around 7:00.

I should also also note that the fact that size 38 jeans still fit right, and that hasn't changed over the last 20+ pounds of loss, and that's a little discouraging. Not sure when I'll start to see progress there, but it makes me worry I'm losing muscle and not fat.

I think eating when you are hungry and what you are craving is a good idea. improvement is good =)
