Hi! Thanks for the advice. javascript:insertTags(%22:h11)%22); It's nice to hear other people have had this trouble as well. I had a feeling it might be the browns but I will have to also refigure the protein thing to.

: Okay so here is the situation. In
: October, I went back and started
: the steps back at step 1 and
: progressed my way through and
: really started to use the journal.
: I waited until 3 weeks ago to
: finally let go of the sugar. In
: December until mid January I
: phased it out. Since October I
: have written down what I have been
: eating and it has kept me very
: stable and feeling good. I also
: exercise 1 hour 6 days a week and
: use a light box first thing in the
: morning for SAD.
: So on January 20, I let go of sugar
: and kept up doing what I have been
: doing which kept me feeling good.
: Then around day 15 I notice I am
: not satisfied after meals. I also
: notice that meals that held me
: from one meal to the next aren't
: doing the trick and I am getting a
: little crabbier than usual. I am
: afraid to change too much in my
: eating because this has been
: working. I keep thinking I will
: wake up and this will resolve
: itself but it's 7 days later and
: it is happening after every meal.
: So here is a sample from my journal
: Breakfast (7:15) 1 cup frozen
: berries, 2 scoops of protein
: powder (15gr), 1 slice of whole
: wheat toast, 1 Tbs flaxseeds, 2
: tbs peanut butter, 1 cup water
: Lunch (12:00) 2 eggs, whole wheat
: tortilla, 3/4 c stir fry veggies,
: 1/2 c of applesauce (homemade with
: peel)
: Snack (2:30) 1/4 dry steel cut
: oatmeal, 1 cup water, 1/2c
: blueberries, 2 TBS walnuts
: Supper (5:00) 1 6oz chicken breast, 1
: cup broccoli w/ cashews and soy
: sauce, 1 slice of whole wheat
: toast
: Potato (8:00) 1 cup of fried potatoes
: in olive oil
: So that is a very typical day for me.
: I am not sure if there is
: something lacking in the browns
: department or maybe I am having
: trouble with wheat (I am not sure
: how to tell that). Anyway, I can
: feel myself sliding back into
: white knuckle it mode and I don't
: really know why.
: Any help would be greatly
: appreciated.
