Oh how I hate that last little bite...



Recommended Posts

The one that stares at you from the plate and says, "Please don't leave me alone! I am so small, I will fit! I swear I won't cause you any trouble." Besides, wouldn't it be wasteful to throw it out!?! It's just one bite!! :sneaky:

I soooooooo know what you mean!!! LOL Sometimes I have to consciously tell myself "this is the bite that will make you throw up, don't be stupid!"

This happens when I am eating something that tastes especially delicious and I want more but know I am already full. Oh the torture!

Good to know I am not alone. LOL :sneaky:

That is so true. I'm glad I'm no the only one hearing tiny voices :sneaky:

This always happens to me! I'm starting to be able to give the last bite to my fiance or just leave it, but I do also hate that last bite!

I do this too. I figure I have only served up a small portion that one more bite won't hurt.........................

I am getting better at leaving food on my plate though. Depends what it is and sometimes when. I am more inclined to leave some of my dinner but really like to eat all my Breakfast if I can!

I'm pretty good at leaving a large amount on my plate, like the other half of a sandwich, but when it is just one or two bites, I can't leave them alone!! It is pitiful :thumbup: Then 10 minutes later I'm rushing to the bathroom and it is all wasted anyway!! That is what I need to keep in mind: I can throw it AWAY now, or throw it UP in ten minutes!! :thumbup:

Oh How I know this feeling and this may sound weird but I hate that I don't throw up after the last bite nor 10 minutes later. I rather throw it up than keep it in and making me consume more calories. :thumbup:

If I understand what you're saying correctly, I know how you feel. But I'm trying to get away from that thinking, because I don't want to get into any kind of eating disorder type mindset. I'm trying to get over compulsive overeating disorder, so I don't want to go to the other side.

Since my last fill, I've made very good friends with little plastic baggies! I save everything for the next day's meals!

Yesterday's orange sounds pretty darn good! :thumbup:

I just compost mine.

I'm so wasteful - Having half eaten fruit in the fridge is a pet peeve of my mum's. Most of the time I won't eat it so it just sits there to rott or go dry.

I tried cling wrap - maybe it'll work better with those bags. I'll see if I eat it and if my mum yells at me :thumbup:

Cheers.

OMG!! Im the same way. I would just look at the last bite and even though I new the outcome :thumbup: I would still eat it. Now I just tell myself...Self, you can throw it away now or throw it up in a few minuits. :thumbup:

It really is a big milestone when we have the willpower to set the fork down with that last lonely little bite starting at us. So congratulate yourselves!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
