[fast5] Re: I love Fast Five!

Hi Kathy,

Well, I find that I am usually still full from lunch and snack around 4-4:30 and don't need anything after that. I usually find that around 8:30, I get a little bit hungry but I just have some water or try to think of something else or occupy myself. My hunger has really diminished over time.

Jenna.
