Portion Distortion,me Or Them?

One last thing for this day.

 

I follow a what have you eaten today threat on another forum and I must confess when I see the following I think they are lying....I am not saying they are lying,I am saying I think they are lying.I hope,hehe.

 

B: fatfree actimel.

L: 1 saltine cracker and 1teaspoon phili

D: beef-the size of a grape and quarter of a very small baby potato

 

This is at 3 months out and a sample only...not directed at a person,just an eg.

 

This is when I freak out at how little one can really eat and how on earth I am going to get mymind around that.I never had that kind of restriction with the band.Mostly it was all or nothing,like everything else in my life..lol

LAP-BAND Patients

I am 9 weeks out I can eat what I want now I don't eat sugary foods or junk foods but I eat meals like my family 2-4 oz. meat 1/2 sm. potato. Vegtables are still hard for me to fit in I eat around 1/2 cup each meal. I understand by 1 yr. out maybe 3/4 - 1 cup at a time. Sometimes I can eat a little more than that I think my stomach is more efficient now at moving foods thru. Just chew, chew, chew, good luck to you.
