lellow 1,713 Posted July 15, 2013 The only time I've ever forgotten to eat is when I'm at my green zone, and I'm not at that point yet with my new band, so imagine my surprise when I left work today and my hands were trembling because all I'd had all day was a cup of unsweetened coffee. The thing is, I went shopping at lunchtime, and while in a suit shop I got a call from work, so I talked on the phone while wandering back to the office. I was distracted, so forgot to pick something up to eat, and didn't remember until I realised I was trembling after work. No hunger to prompt me at all. As bad as that was, it's one of the big signs that after almost 18 months, I finally have a working band again! And it also means it's time to set my alarm again to remind me to have lunch, just in case.... 6 chasingadream, parisshel, ☠carolinagirl☠ and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SueBee01 630 Posted July 15, 2013 Just keep a small snack in your purse like Peanut Butter crackers or some almonds. My NUT is ok with skipping meals. If you are not hungry don't eat! I always have healthy Snacks as my meal times are "you never know when!" 1 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The funny thing is, I am physically hungry even, but food has become such an afterthought in my life that sometimes I don't even realize I am hungry. I now keep a Protein bar in my purse at all times. This way if I do forget to eat and realize I'm hungry, I can have one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
