I'm not convinced this is the case, at least for me. Making it through 2000cal of soylent/day was actually pretty difficult, and I didn't have cravings during the day. Appetite/portion control with regular food continues

Not everyone's got AIS and ECDIS though. The places where I trained really pushed DSC for fishing and recreational use, by making it relevant to the little guys too: "If you'd just found a good fishing spot or a nice quiet pl
