I'd you're open to advice: calories aren't what makes you feel full. Mass makes you feel full (a bit over simplified, but not completely wrong), so what you need to do is eat stuff, and I ate SO many carrots and cucumbers when I was trying to feel more full without more calories.

I absolutely hate raw carrots now, but eh, small price to pay.

For a lot of people losing weight is not easy. You could also tell a smoker that it is easy to quit smoking, just don't pick up a cigarette anymore.

Yeah, except then you die. So actually DO keep smoking, but limit yourself to 3x a quarter of a cigarette per day. Easy, right?

    It does help with the immediate hunger, but it comes back strong once your body realises it was "cheated" out of calories. I am not sure I can withstand that for a long time. But maybe a short time would already be an improvement.

    So thanks I will try to have carrots lying around at all times and try to eat them first between meals. Maybe it helps.

    Also have you asked a smoker how it feels to slightly reduce the number of cigarettes per day?
