Increased calories=weight loss

Some days i struggle to get my protein and liquid intake, but on good days i eat every 3 hours, i eat protein first, add in some healthy carbs, and a smidgen of fat. I noticed i lose more inches and weight when eat more frequently and have one to two higher calorie items a week, not calorie bombs but more then normal 150-200 calories. Just thought i would share, especially those of us with severe binge eating issues, the eating healthy every few hours is physically and mentally satisfying

Exactly, whats the point of sleeving your stomach if you are going to go buck a$$ wild and screw your weight loss with slider foods? Not worth it

I think the point im trying to make is add a little variety to ur diet for a day, more than just Protein shakes and Clear liquids. I didnt know u were JUST sleeved, maybe u should relax and not focus on the scale, the weight will come off
