Here are my most recent "ahhhhhh I'm so proud of this journey" pictures! 6 pounds until I reach 150! I'm considering adjusting my goal to 140. Congrats everyone.

I've never been less than a 14 since being a teenager. I just can't imagine being single digits. Wow !

Ggggooooaaaallllll! Made it to 150[emoji1316]

Yes they are different. My comment was based on the puree stage which I found didn't matter with how I measured. Solids are a different story.

Volume and Weight are two totally different things, so it does matter how you measure.

My plan is 1-2 ozs working up to 4 ozs by week 6. It's important to measure and stick with your recommended portions. Take advantage of this time to learn better eating habits - don't rely on your stomach to tell you when to stop eating. Protein is first - so unless you are getting all your Protein before having potatoes or pastina - I'd reconsider your choices. Pasta of any kind can trigger more cravings for carbs.

Damn, girl, you look amazing. Congrats!

I'm now just over a year out. I also had this concern. However, just because you can, doesn't mean you should. It isn't about how much you can fit in your new tiny tummy, but how little can you eat and be satisfied. I strongly suggest you measure and follow your program. You won't regret it.
