My appetite got smarter

This is so cool. Used to be, pre-LC, that if I pigged out all day one day,
the next day my appetite would be just as big. It didn't matter how active
or inactive I was either, I'd just always want to eat a lot. Now though it
seems like my appetite actually responds to what I've been doing like it's
conspiring to keep my weekly calories at the same average. Like, if I work
out, I'm hungrier. If I'm having a lazy day, I'm less hungry. If I eat
really light one day, then the next day I'll be more hungry, and if I
overeat one day then the next I'll be less hungry. And therefore without
even trying, my overall calorie consumption ends up being low enough week
to week to keep losing, even if I overeat here and there.

I have only 3 flaws. My first flaw is thinking that I only have 3 flaws.

I have found with low carbing that my appetite is greatest in the
mornings and tapers off throughout the day. In the evenings I am not
at all hungry for a couple hours before bed as long as I have eaten my
'3 squares a day' and not skipped a meal.

Isn't it wonderful to feel "normal" about these things?
