No hunger

millenia Posts: 133 Joined: 2004/04/03	2004/08/09, 07:03 AM For the past two weeks i have been eating two meals a day. One about 12-2 and the other bteween 7-10 at night. I work as a waitress and im always on my feet, but i never get hungry...sometimes i don't eat because i feel like im not hungry because i have been eating too much. I would usually eat beans and toast and then chicken and potatoes for dinner. Im scared incase im eating too much! :(

Our bodies need the energy so don't be afraid of eating, just east WISELY!... -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur. www.nme-pro.com
