Stomach Size....growing?

I am a bit over 3 months out, lately....I feel like I can eat more. It is scary...and I have not lost for almost 2 weeks and I had just broken a stall a few days before this one.

Has anyone else had this happen?

I have been thinking this, too. If I remember right, our surgery dates are close (I was 11/14/13).

I can definitely eat more than a month ago. But here's what I experimented with lately - if I use my Eat Slower app and set it to 45 seconds between bites, not only do I chew more and slow down, I eat less. Eating in a more calm mental state, allows me to more easily identify when I'm full.

Another thing I keep thinking of when I eat - I only want to eat enough to rid myself of the hunger, not eat until I'm full. There's a difference. I have to remind myself to pay attention. Eating slower and chewing more helps.

I think in the past few weeks, I allowed myself to get off track. Nothing bothers my sleeve, so I can just about anything.

I was sleeved about a month before you two and about a month ago I went through a few weeks where I was eating 1300-1400 calories a day. Scared the crap out of me! Then I just couldn't. Now I'm back down to 600-800 calories a day again. I don't know, Weird. ..

At approaching 6 months out, I can eat 1200 calories plus without a second thought. It really is scary.

I have resorted to using MyFitnessPal to make sure I hold myself accountable.
