The most useful thing I came away from the session with is something that will feature prominently throughout this experience, which you might call the "Tummy Scale":
10 Nauseous
9 Painfully stuffed
8. Bloated
7. Full
6. Satisfied
5. Neutral
4. Peckish
3. Hungry
2. Ravenous
1. Feeling weak
... The objective is to keep within the range 3 - 7, and consequently I am now continually "listening" to my stomach.
Here's how it went today:
0530 4 - 200G dark choc - went to 5
0830 4 -two slices toast went to 6
1200 at 5, 2 hunks crusty white bread, 12 choc buttons went to 6
1600 At 4-5 Full dinner + dessert, went to 7
2000 At 6, had one squre of white choc.
Bedtime (2300) at 6
So far so good then!
