From kels, Age 16

i discovered something the other day. I just ate normal food, like not diet, and i just ate normal servings. I had a bowl of captain crunch for breakfast. for lunch I had 2/3 cup cottage cheese ( i actually like it) and a 2 inch piece of cake (remember portion control, key element) for supper i had 2 slices of little ceasars and a ice cream cone at dairy queen. i realized later that I had a reasonal # of calories, adaquate nutrition, and not craving food all night long like i usually do. I've been doing that for a week, eating mostly healthy, but not eating "diet" food or really counting calories (dont go overboard on this, u have to know the limits, a whopper w/ cheese and fries doesnt work this way) and leting myself have treats and not depriving myself. we've been eating a lot of salad, veggies and chicken, tonight I had a chicken breast grilled, a salad (romain lettuce spinach, and feild greans, the darker the lettuce, the better) and we had aspargus and i had ice cream, now im done eating for the night and its 8 o clock
