Just one more bite

OK, I am a little over a month out. I am struggling getting in my protein (aren't we all). So today I was determine to get at least 60g in my body. I had it all figured out.... so I thought. I had a can of tuna - which is on 3 oz of meat. I figured if I took an hour to eat it I could fit it all in and make that protein mark! Nope.... I was feeling what I believe if my new "full" ( I am still learning) but there was just one more bite left. I did it... I ate the one more bite... OOOOOOOPS...... Wont be doing that again! I thought it went down... but it just kind of sat there almost in my tummy. then that one last bite came back out! I didnt loose my whole lunch - just that one last bite - but... ugh what a horrible feeling and apin just before it came back out! Lesson Learned!!! DONT EAT THAT ONE LAST BITE! I am going to measure things out from now on too. 1/4 and no more!

I'm finding that nowadays I never never never finish what's on my plate. Such a huge change for me -- I always finished that last bite! Your experience is something I'll keep in mind next time I'm tempted :) I understand what you were trying to achieve, but boy oh boy that must have sucked!!!

As far as Protein -- I'm also just over 4 weeks out, and I'm still supplementing with Protein shakes to get my protein in. The Syntrax nectar fruit ones are pretty light if you just mix them with Water -- not thick like other protein shakes ---- and they have 23 g of protein each serving! So if you can drink 4 to 6 oz of liquid, why not mix in those 23 g of protein?!?! I'm averaging 700 calories a day, and 80+ g of protein all in all.

My nails are growing like crazy....I guess it's from all the protein?

I'm almost 8 months out...and that last bite still usually ends up in me having the foamies.

I, too, am in the process of learning to stay away from that one last bite. It never ends well.

The second you feel satisfied you should stop, my step-mother recommended keeping a spray bottle of vinegar for a while to spray my plate when I felt that feeling so I wouldn't be tempted to try to keep eating it.
