i can really relate to your process, SplitImage...
i have stalled at 187, and can't seem to get lower. my appetite has jumped up and gotten the better of me, too. i thought summer would be easier,, but the longer the day, the more i want to eat.
it IS tough to tolerate feeling hungry, even if the mind might think it's not true~!.
let's remember all the other things we can do besides eat, and walking must def. be one of those~! best wishes~~
