In the first week when I finally ate I ate like there was no tomorrow, but now some chorba(soup) and half salad and I am done.

I was wondering if anyone had lost weight cos yesterday I noticed my clothes were very loose and my wedding ring fell off my finger...hmm maybe i just lose water from my body...??? But this could be a good thing. :D

LOL...yep me too. I fantasized all day about all the stuff I was gonna eat. I don't normally eat dessert but the first 10 days of Ramadan I ate like 2 everynight! I would literally eat myself sick. Last night I broke my fast with tamr and coffee then didn't eat my dinner until like 10pm...I just wasn't hungry and I had to force myself to even eat dinner at all. I'm also finding I have a bit more energy esp. in the evening right after I break my fast.

In the first week when I finally ate I ate like there was no tomorrow, but now some chorba(soup) and half salad and I am done.

Don't focus on your discomfort. Drag your mind over onto something else and it will pass. I go through this about the same time you do every morning. Its getting easier. I get that whoopsie feeling and just dig harder into my work and next thing I know its gone (both the whoopsie and a lot of my work!)

I've noticed that I've started to lose weight.. my jeans feel looser. woohoo!

I think my stomach has also started to shrink because I'm also not hungry when it comes time to break fast and when I do eat, I feel stuffed after just a couple bites.

I also find when I keep myself busy that I don't get hungry at all... I barely even think about eating until about 5:30 or 6. It's on the weekends when I have a really hard time... when I stay home. And all I can think about is food!!! Even when I have tv and homework to distract me... it's like, oh yay there's a good E! True Hollywood Story, I wonder what I'll have for dinner.
