I'm eating well, just small amounts.

Lee — 10/23/2005 8:34:52 PM (archived)

I have one sandwich (two slices of whole wheat, two slices of lean ham, a slice of cheese, and a thick slice of tomato) a day along with a couple of apples or other assorted fruit. All food groups are represented. I also drink lots of orange juice.

For the first week it felt like I was starving, but now I get through the day just fine. If I eat much more now it feels like my stomach is going to burst.
