Good summary of what I had pieced together.

*****

Recall many decades ago limited access to food to designated meal times when I ate "dinner" at 4:00 and next meal was at 6:00am. I can still remember the extreme hunger, and drinking cold water at the bubbler to calm the endless hunger. Looking back I remember that time as torture, yet lost about 20 pounds. The extremely high number of carbs is likely the difference: lots of chocolate milk, endless desserts, plate piled high with high carb foods. What we eat does seem to matter. Given that 23/1 has been doable with no hunger.
