"I learned that I don't need to keep with my old ideas about food and time to eat”

I decided to join 28-day because I've been working for more than two years to get back to my normal weight. I took a very bad decision some years ago while I was doing crossfit as exercise. I accepted from a nutritionist to insert me a sort metabolic acceleration product to lose some fat. But the side effect was that it made me gain more than 10 kgs :( 
I started to lose this weight and I feel better now but I still have some weight to lose and I want to prove to myself that I can do it.
“...you don't feel starving, is all in your head.”
[...] I learned that I don't need to keep with my old ideas about food and time to eat. I learned that is easier than it looks. 
That you don't feel starving, is all in your head. That once you break the fast the food taste delicious but also you don't need to eat a lot. [...]
If you need to move the window because there is a celebration with friends, do it! Have fun. move the fasting window and continue. The journey is not going to be perfect and I learned a lot from my mistakes.”
