I suppose that could be true, but it seems very counterproductive to eat more!
Maybe it would help if I shared what my typical day looks like. I'm averaging about a half - 1 pound loss a week, down from almost 1.5 pounds at the start of my WW journey. Breakfast is usually a vegetable omelette - one or two eggs from free range chickens, leeks, brussels sprouts, mushrooms, spinach and tomatoes cooked in a tiny bit of Olive oil with a bit of Mediterranean herbs and turmeric. I usually also have either a banana or clementine and depending on my plans for the day I'll have 1 piece of rye toast. Lunch is a wrap made with a garden ranch Flatout, 3 oz no salt added Boars Head turkey or low salt chicken/turkey, lettuce and mustard. I add a couple of compari tomatoes and 8 or 9 poppables. Dinner is 3-4 ounces of a lean protein, 1/2 cup of a starch (rice, mashed potatoes) or 1 cup of pasta, almost half my plate is vegetables or salad. Snacks are fat free plain greek yogurt (I like Siggi's) with fresh or frozen blueberries or strawberries added with a dash of cinnamon, fruit or baby carrots, almonds (1/2 ounce) and at night I like frozen Enlightened Almond pops. When I have extra points left over I'll treat myself to a Dove dark chocolate promise. Water and unsweetened tea have always been my drinks of choice but I will occasionally have a glass of wine.
Hope this helps!
