Coming in from another "diet" plan

I know exactly what you’re talking about. I was on that plan 5 times over the last 10 years and gained back my weight each time. I do believe this is a healthier and more realistic way to simply eat better (& remind us to exercise whatever way we like). I found counting food calories almost became an obsession and by dinner, I started to panic that I didn’t have enough points left to finish the day without being hungry. I have been on the TDC plan for a couple of weeks now. I haven’t been able to eat all of the food recommended each day yet. Seriously. I’m NEVER hungry. I stayed the same weight the first 2 weeks and haven’t weighed myself this week yet, but I can say this is a more interesting plan and I like trying new foods/recipes. I also don’t seem to be preoccupied for what I’ll put in my mouth next. I think it will take a while to adjust to this new eating lifestyle, but every plan takes a while to understand. Take it a day at a time, incorporate as many good/new foods as possible and see where it takes you. Good luck. Cathy
