What you are eating for dinner may have a lot to do with this... too light a dinner may result in you looking for more food later on to fill that gap.
Eat low carb, and high fat. You will enter ketosis after about a week, and you will seldom be hungry. After about 2 weeks you will have all your strength and energy back, and you will find that you will not huff and puff despite high exertion. If you don't have a HR monitor, you will need one because you will not be able to rely on your breathing to tell you when you are overexerting. You will loose a lot of weight if you exercise, and your cholesterol will drop.
