By The Way....

How do you all feel about your restriction at a year out? Mine is drastically reduced. Sometimes I feel I can eat like a normal person, other times I can really feel it. Input please....:)

I was just talking to my hubby about this. Most of the time i dont feel any restriction (but i feel hunger) and its a struggle to keep myself from continuing to eat.

But every once in a while i eat something and i feel instantly restricted. Very oddwith no pattern i can identify

I will say that i have been at goal weight for almost 6 months now which is the longest in recent memory. Typically i would reach goal and almost immediately begin to regain

I still have great restriction, although it is less that it was 6 months ago. A few meal examples for me: one egg with 1/2 piece of toast, one taco, about 2-3 oz of Protein with 2-3 bites of veggie.

I am 7 weeks pregnant now, so I am curious to see how that changes things. Good luck to you.

I still feel restriction, but I think my portions are usually normal enough looking that I don't feel weird anymore when eating in front of people.

I still stop in the middle of eating to give me time to figure out if I should eat more or not. This has saved me so many times from becoming too uncomfortable. :)

This sounds about like me. However, that said, if I eat eat carby sort of things, they are mostly sliders and I can eat way more. I try to avoid these things or if I am going to have them, limit it. If I "think" I need more I will eat a Protein - instant restriction.

For me it depends, some days I for instance I can eat two chicken enchiladas with two spoon fills of Beans, other days I won't be able to finish one enchilada. It just depends.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
