actually no...I am so thankful that a small portion of whatever I eat is enough to satisfy. My knee feels better 32 lbs. down, I look better, and I'm walking a little better. That's worth everything to me. Even when I pass a restaurant that looks interesting, it reminds me of when I stopped smoking and saw others puffing away....just a thing of the past for me now..and no regrets. Don't get me wrong, I eat out...but it's not a priority...just a part of my life. I've just started my weight loss journey so I'm hoping this feeling never goes away.

I don't know about throwing food, but I have wished I could have more of something. I chalk it up to "fat person thinking". Remember this journey is mostly mental.

I'm the other extreme, why bother fixing something nice, I'm only going to be able to eat 1/2 a cup.

not really but it made me smile picturing it (as in the past i probably would not be a heffer if i did throw it across the room)......but sure when i make good food, case in point, made awesome chili and lordy it is soooooo good........and i in my head know i want to eat like 2 or 3 bowls but i cant.....the band/plication wont let me and if i did go over my allottment, i would be very uncomfortable......

Im with Terry. I actually have to remind myself that I have a family to feed.

I dont like putting in so much effort if its just for me since i know i will only eat 10 bites an be done.

Luckily I don't have this problem.. When its something I really like and know (at one point) could have completely devoured.. I measure or weigh my servings and then put it away.

Yes!

I am excited at the thought that now when I make my favourite food, instead of devouring three or four servings at a time mindlessly and hardly tasting it, I will now be able to have it for lunch or dinner the next few days and enjoy it every time!! :wub:

My favorite restaurant meal is eggplant parm.... Especially during Lent. Ordered it the other day at my favorite place. Ate my portion and had enough for 4 more meals!!!! Yippee!!!!!! Saving money and time!
