Why do things taste so much better when you are hungry?

My wife Amy and I are on a pretty strict diet (and it is working!) I have lost 14lbs and my wife 7.

I have had times where I was real super disciplined in my eating plan-Amy? Not so much! It has been really difficult for her at times to fight the temptations. But she is doing it!!!

Her Birthday was met with grilled chicken, steamed broccoli, tossed salad with no dressing, cheese or croutons and a "Birthday cake" made from a meal-replacement shake. (It actually looked more like a taste-less chocolate pancake).

I have promised her that on August 25th we would go eat at Provinos! (Her favorite Birthday meal) and celebrate!
