Feel like in the beginning when I was released to all food that the amount I could eat was consistent, I would measure it would always be one bite less than my portion...nowadays I've slacked on measuring but for the most part if I'm eating the same or similar thing, one day I can eat the entire thing, the next not even close! It's so odd to me! Here's an example...I ate the entire lunch a couple days ago then today this is all I could finish! So weird, it's the same with salads which I often eat(always meat mostly first) but some days I could eat my whole serving others I stop so early odd!

I go through periods where I can eat a lot ten it just goes away and I can hardly eat anything. I think it has something yo do with my level of activity for any given day.

Though I am pretty consistent in servings sizes, I have noticed I can't eat as much sometimes. No idea why, but I'll take it since I was not one of the lucky ones who lost the hunger feeling.

I find it is what I am eating. Somethings "fit" better in my sleeve. I have a friend who had it done and man can she shovel in the salad!

We were sleeved within a month of one another, so I guess my experience is applicable. I've noticed that there are times at work that I can eat my entire lunch comfortably and other times I might eat 1/4 cup instead of 1/2 and feel fine. There are other times that I might eat a couple crackers and not think about eating again.

I'm not sure what causes that. I think for me, it depends on my stress level and how busy I am. If I'm really in a hurry, I find that I eat less because I know that it'll take me a good 30 minutes to finish and I need part of that 30 mins to run copies, use the bathroom, grab some materials, tidy my classroom, etc.

My portion sizes have been all over the place. Some days I can eat a lot more than others. Today I'm not hungry, so I ended up drinking a Protein shake for lunch. I'm exhausted (kids up all night) and food didn't sound good at all.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
