Tigra, I'm only just going back on a LC plan next week (gotta get supplements and foods or it'd be now), but I did a 3week "trial" of PPLP about 9 months ago.

I have the same problem -- I am so used to NOT eating that it was just damned hard to make myself eat. So in my trial, I spent far too much time without food, and then drinking 2-3 protein shakes instead of eating real food because I was busy or it was too late to spend time cooking or whatever.

But in retrospect, near the end of the trial, one thing SAVED me --

String cheese. The little individually wrapped pieces like for kids can be found in any store, and it is really easy to eat one, as there is hardly anything there. Yet, it has some protein and usually 1 carb. It's a great thing to have handy for eating 'between' the long stretches some people put between meals, or in the time between getting up and some people like me finally getting around to considering really eating.

Regards,
PJ
