Hi Jen - A one cup serving sounds just fine. Does that fill you up? You could always try eating a smaller portion, and then giving yourself a bit of time, and if you're hungry have seconds. Not going to long between eating will make it easier to not wolf down too much food too quickly, too.
---Actually, sometimes it doesn't, and I am still hungry an hour later, but I have tried to ignore it, which doesn't always work.
Today I had a slice of your zucchini bread plus peppermint tea for breakfast, a cup of fat free tuna salad with about 10 fat-free saltines and 1/2c. applesauce for lunch, 1 1/2 c. rice chex and 1 c. rice milk for snack, and then 1 c. angel hair pasta with marinara and zucchini and 1/2c. mango for dinner. Later on I usually have about 10 more fat free saltines because I'm hungry.
I try to eat about 4-5 times a day regularly because it feels better, but do you think this is too much or too little??
Thank you for ALL your input, so far you have been incredibly helpful, and I appreciate all that you do! 
Jen
