I'm on a diet now for about a month. Only drink water and coffee.

I eat 1 big meal a day. Low calories and if possible low on carbs. So lots of vegetables, replaced potatoes with cauliflower and mostly chicken breast.

As dessert yogurt with a little bit of fresh food.

What time do you eat your meal? I can't imagine going hours without eat even a little bit of fruit.

I try to not eat for about 20 hours, sleeping is included and eat in a time period of 4 hours.

I usually start eating around 5 pm. I just drink allot of water to keep the hunger feeling away.

I also started my diet with a 5 day water fast, to give me a nice start.

I just hope I can keep the weight off this time. It sucks being fat.

Good luck! I'm sure you'll get there and hopefully you'll be able to maintain some good habits.
