I am over 3 months out and VERY happy with my weight loss success. The only thing is, I notice my eating ability changes day to day. At the weekend I went out to a greek restaurant and could barely touch more than a bit of lamb. The next day I had just less than half a slice of toast and I was STUFFED.
But then on other days, like today I can eat more. I have been feeling so ill and made myself a piece of toast and managed a whole slice of it. Later on in the day I had a small low fat side dish indian potato and vegetable curry for 180 calories and could eat it in just around 30 minutes with a few breaks.
Other days, I feel like I can't eat much at all and I'm worried I'm suddenly going to be able to eat larger portions of food.
I don't touch cookies, candies, chips, cakes, ice cream and decided not to as I was addicted to these foods and find if I don't touch them, I won't get the urge to binge. I never eat in a way that is unhealthy now so I'm confident that I won't cheat the sleeve in terms of drinking high calorie drinks or lots of ice cream BUT am worried I can eat too much food such as bread. But it is amazing how it can change from day to day...what I can manage one day and think is a slider, the next I can't even touch.
My family are happy when I can eat a bit more because I do hardly touch my food when I am out with them, so it's a victory for them when they see me eat a piece of toast and they say, "well done, you managed it!" Which is quite sweet actually...am I worrying for nothing?
