  2. I did a search because I got sick a week ago and had to take vicodin. I didn't want to eat big meals so I only really ate a small portion in the afternoon, but during the day, I would eat a couple of almonds. They totally wipe out hunger pains. I lost 5 lbs in two weeks doing this, it was amazing.
