Kiki,

One of the programs that I did before RR focused on not eating until hungry, but I couldn't sustain that way of eating. When I found out, through this program, about steady blood sugar, it made sense. I am much more calm and peaceful eating this way. For me, when I feel hunger, I'm usually falling off the cliff...having my blood sugar crash. It is much better for me if I eat at set times and eat set amounts.

Sometimes I don't have much of an appetite, especially if I am stressed. If I go ahead and eat...again at set times and set amounts, it really does help.

Allison gave a great explanation about craving fat when we reduce sugar. Did you see that post?

: Sometimes I'm hesitant to eat if I

: Strange...why do we crave more fat if
: we are reducing our sugar intake?
