This approach doesn't work for a lot of people because they can't differentiate between true physical
hunger and emotional
hunger. The
hunger response is not only triggered when your
body is truly hungry. It can and will be triggered in response to things like
stress or any other variable that can alter the hormonal milieu of your
body.
If it works for you, great. It's pretty simplistic, so it's certainly nice if it works. But don't get hung up on trying and trying even though/if it doesn't seem to be working.
Trying new things and discarding what doesn't work is what this is all about.

Make sure you're not eating too little.
That's a real possibility depending on your stats.

Not sure if you saw my pics or not, but last night before I went to bed I had a tortilla shell stuffed with chicken, spinach and cheese, a bowl of apple sauce and a handful of nuts.
If you're in a net calorie deficit, I'm interested in hearing the response to Mal's question too.
