And the reason people lose weight is...

I've had ~1380 Kcals today, I'm definitely hungry, but I don't want any of the things I am permitted to have.

See, that's the problem with the really strict or formalized diets. The tougher they are, the more the temptation to cheat. :)

Rarrrrrrhr! I feel your pain.

And thus, you have discovered why that diet works.

Sometimes a nice cup of herb tea or chai makes the tummy warm and full.

And sometimes YUCK, it's SO not what I want.

Ugh! So frustrating. The good side of those diets is that you lose weight quickly. The bad side is that what you can eat is limited. I've only lost 7 pounds in about a month and a half, but I find that magically after I eat my giant pile of vegetables and dairy for lunch that I'm not hungry. If I don't get lunch by about 12:30, though, I go crazy and start eating peanut butter. Also, I can't eat less than 1450 a day without getting really hungry and whiny.
