Trust me, I'm not depriving myself at all. In fact, I eat more than I did before my diet. I just eat the "right" things in small portions all day long. I'm following my dietitian's and my doctor's advice exactly. I cut my sugar intake way down, thus the reason I don't eat cake, cookies, etc. unless it's a special occasion. I do allow myself a sensible portion at those times.

I'm not hungry, I feel great, and I'm definitely not deprived and yo-yo'ing. I learned that skipping breakfast and lunch, then eating what I thought was a reasonable dinner is no way to go through life. It caused me to gain weight to the point that I was ready to buy some size 40 jeans. That's when I talked to the dietitian and got an education.
