Update:
Started my six-months on Oct 19th, so just a few weeks in.
I've lost some weight. Was 363 this morning. That's 21 pounds (wow! 21lbs! Didn't realize that! Honeymoon weight loss from new diet.). It feels like I am not doing enough, but on the other hand I am honestly hungry all the time. That's the biggest problem I've always had. I can tolerate feeling this hungry while I am losing weight, but once I stall out... Well, I'm sure it is a common story.
I actually still feel hungry after I have eaten.
Sorry, it sounds whiny.

Been wanting to chew my hand off today!
I gave up artificial sweetners in my drinks two days ago too, and I think that might be making me hungrier. It is a LOT harder to get in my fluids now.
Ah well, no one said it would be easy.
