Wow almost 3 months!

Wow, I'm almost 3 months in and still no fill. Since I am losing and still staying satisfied on small portions my surgeon is not suggesting a fill at this time, my next appointment is in 6 weeks and we'll just go from there.

 

I feel great and I am 5 lbs from getting out of the 3's. I decided to put my scale up for a couple weeks because I want to be in the 2's next time I weigh.... this is a really big deal for me!!

 

I have many non scale victories and they are equally as important, one that really makes me happy is that I am seeing body parts that I haven't seen in years... and you know what I'm talking about :thumbup: Also I am wogging, what is wogging you say, well it's in between a walk and a jog and I am wogging a mile without stopping and it feels great.

 

I'm also very excited that my husband has been on the plan with me, minus the band. He also has a weight issue and even though we are tackling this in different ways we are doing it together and that is all that matters.

WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER A SMALL MEAL

WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER A SMALL MEAL

Ibelloso it really depends on what I am eating. If it's chicken I eat half a bonless skinless breast and a vegetable. So usually I stick to a cup, cup and a half for a meal but honestly every meal is different. A typical day would look like this.

Breakfast: oat meal pack or granola cereal

lunch: half a toasted pannini and a salad

dinner: chicken, vegetable or cassarole and side salad

snack: sherbert cup or popcorn

At this point I can eat anything with the exception of fluffy bread. It must be toasted.

Hope this helped and feel free to ask me anything.
