I tried the apple thing last year. All that happened is I ate so many apples that I no longer really like them.

I think eating what your body wants is much healthier, as long as you eat within reason. I mean I eat my 1200 calories as healthy as possible but that doesn't mean I don't sometimes have ice cream or something. In fact I usually have some form of a treat in the evening and just allow the calories for that. And it works for me.

I'm going to have to try another apple sometime soon....but not as the primary snack.
