The massive salad is a big winner. Once you get over the mental block of worrying it won’t be enough, you suddenly don’t miss the extra calories.
I feel like I really feel the benefit of not eating until lunch. There’s a weird sticking point around 9-10am where there’s a hunger pang, but it fades after a coffee and I feel generally so much better. Whenever I’ve managed to stick to these eating habits, I feel like I’m just so much more aware of what is actually in my body/stomach at any one time. There’s probably a slight increase in how sensitive my stomach is (which isn’t usually sensitive at all), but it honestly just feels like my body telling me when I’m putting bad stuff in.

This for me as well. Not to get too shiny-eyed, but after a short bedding-in period of a week or so, once I am in the groove it then "bad" food just doesn't seem quite so enticing or tasty any more.

I'm also a 3 meals a day guy. It must just be habit but I struggle not to snack if I skip breakfast or lunch. I've just been eating massive salads for lunch every day. It feels like a meal but only comes to about 100 calories or something.
