This is normal for me. I eat very small meals but several times a day. The doc said it was working for me to do this way then far be it from them to change what is working. My issue is I still fill my plate like I dont have a band. Oh well. Good luck.

3 hours between eating is not bad. That's about how far I go. My surgeon says snacking is brainless eating. If I need to eat between meals due to hunger, then a planned bit of nutritious food is not snacking.

My doctor suggested that I stop thinking of meals and Snacks. It's fine to eat every 3 to 4 hours, but I should spread my planned daily food over 5 or 6 portions rather than 3. I try to aim for 1000 calories per day so I try keep that in mind when planning my daily menu.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
