I watched in a youtube blog to bring a child sippy cup with you, because it helps teach you how to take the sip sip sip swallows. It prevents you from taking to big of sips while you are learning how to use your new stomach. I love this tip, I'm bring one to the Hospital with me.
Brief background, all my dieting failed, I loved nutrisystem, but just could stay on it past 6 months.
Now, I am in a pre-op situation. I was to stop the nutrisystem, and eat regular meals. It took a while, but now I am building my own meals. Never spiced or rubbed s chicken before in my life, until now. I can pass fast food joints, even when I am hungry. Grabbing an apple is second nature, and I push for better Fiber count. I actually watch cooking shows for ideas of what I could cook up. Two months, I lost 15 lbs of my starting 394. I haven't felt better. Normally, if I lost 15 lbs, I'd hit a pizza as a "celebration.". No desire for that now, just want to tick off another 2 lbs. My only problem is perhaps not enough vegetables, and need better meal scheduling.
So, I feel like I could keep doing this, and maybe won't need surgery. Or am I falling into a trap?
