2 1/2 Months Out And I Finally Understand!

[beefalogal 43]

My sleeve journey has been so smooth that I am embarrassed to talk about it! Never been nauseous, very little pain, no adverse reaction to any food. Life is very good but I seemed to be able to eat plenty of calories each day, woke up looking forward to my diluted orange juice and vanilla Protein Shake (tasted just like creamsicyles from my childhood), greek yougurt with my chia seeds, marina sauce on my spaghetti squash, etc. Everything was great but I realized that I was eating too many calories even tho it was mainly Protein. I had hit a plateau in my weightloss but was not gaining any back. I gave up my wonderful Breakfast protein shake, my Greek yougurts with the chia seeds and went back to real food. I have been traveling so yesterday and today I had black Beans, chicken, brown rice, cottage cheese, avocado and I finally feel the too full sensation. I must say that I am relieved to feel it! Was beginning to wonder if I was always going to be able too eat so easily. Can not weigh myself until I get home in a couple of days but so hope to see some downward movement on the scale. Rock on everyone!

I eat Greek yoghurt for breakfast (add raspberries) and do feel full after it. It is funny how different we all are and how our sleeves react to different foods.

shakes and yogurt never give me the restriction feeling, now beef even ground, I can only eat a tiny amount. I eat a lot of tuna, chicken and beef Jerky for added Protein.< /p>
