I am continually amazed at how eating fat so efficiently quells hunger, and the satiety I feel from eating fat lasts for hours. Yesterday, I had 6 oz. half-and-half yogurt, 2 eggs fried in ghee, and about 4 oz. roasted chicken with mayo for breakfast. (No, I'm not a lumberjack - I'm just way hungrier in the morning than the rest of the day). That lasted me for 8 hours.

Around 5pm, I was only barely hungry and ate my coconut oil/flaxseed/cinnamon "cookie," just because I wanted to get these things in me for the day. Again, instant, complete, and long-lasting satiety.

Sometimes, I completely skip dinner because I'm just not hungry. As time goes on and I listen to my body more and more, my food intake goes down because I'm keeping the fat high, my blood sugar is a calm, peaceful hum, and my hunger is miniscule.
