    conquering_dreamz got a reaction from jhenry126 in Do you ever feel like you can eat more than 1 cup at one sitting?   
    I am almost 4 weeks post op and the best advice I received was eat until I'm satisfied and not full. I tried that the last few days and I feel so much better. If I feel myself getting hungry after eating I try to choose a healthier snack like a piece of fruit. However, this is a learning process. I have learned to give myself some slack. I have made some mistakes and have paid for it. Being full or overeating is so uncomfortable it's not really worth it. We all got the surgery bc in some way or another we had a bad relationship with food. That doesn't go away after surgery. I had to stop measuring and counting food because it started giving me anxiety. Stick with trying to eat the right foods, Beans, veggies, fruit, lean meat. Continue to try to learn and adapt to this new process and tool.

    I Believe soft foods is week 4. I would skip the skin and just it's the meat of the fruit.

    conquering_dreamz got a reaction from KristenLe in When to eat what not to eat   
    @kristenle. I am confused. I think my doctor is trying to convert me to a vegetarian. She told me to start with the Beans first and than the veggies. I'm like what about the meat. Lol. So I have been trying to have a lean meat only once a day. She said she doesn't want me to focus on scales and counting. Eat four times drink my 3-4 bottles of Water and take my Vitamins. I had a whole argument about what "I saw on the Internet". She said leave the Internet alone.
