My surgery was 2-25-14 and I'm slowly getting back to "normal" my food choices have increased along with my activity and I'm back at work so am on more of a schedule then I was while recovering, which has been a struggle.

I can't "snack" at work and have to go sometimes 4 or more hours without food, I wasn't one of the lucky people with no appetite after surgery so by the time I can eat my tiny tummy is roaring as loudly as it can (still much less then before). I've managed to curb the speed eating I used to do but I keep eating too much! (The whole 2 oz instead the 1.5 oz my tiny tummy would be comfortable with) I've always been a "clean plater" and that too I'm working on overcoming.

Anyone else been having similar struggles? I would love any advice, tricks, suggestions you wonderful sleevers could send my way. I'm working hard to better listen to my body, which I know is the most important thing I can do.

Ive totally been struggling with this n the key foe me is s to plate just under my allowed smount so I dont have the option of the last bite

I struggle with this, too! I measure everything out and try to put a little less. I am trying to stop before I'm full - just when the edge is gone.

Miss Tummy has taught me to eat slowly and wait for the tupperware burp. That's my clue to put my plate away. Typically, if I measure out the 1/3 cup and two tablespoons that I was told is my capacity, the burp leaves me one last bite to throw away. If I take a chance and eat anything after the burp, I am freakin miserable for four to five hours afterwards.
