Just a quick question, I see some of you guys have been banded for a while now....do you guys still measure out your food to be 4oz as it looks like your eating some regular food!

Just a quick question, I see some of you guys have been banded for a while now....do you guys still measure out your food to be 4oz as it looks like your eating some regular food!

I have a little one cup bowl that I eat out of along with my sandwich plates - I don't use grown up plates or bowls anymore.. After a year I am pretty good at knowing what 4 oz looks like. But I did weigh and measure for the first 6 months or so. Will still weigh things like Pasta as I don't eat it often so I don't know what 2 oz looks like..

The goal of the band is to eat healthy food - to make the change in what you eat - I don't like the whole normal food title - normal food for most of us was high fat - high sugar.. For me my normal food got me fat...

So now I eat healthy - I don't diet I eat healthy and I eat what is considered now a normal portion size not a fat chick's idea of a portion .

Yestdays food - Fish - Pork Rib - Okra & Rice - popcorn - Watermelon - SF fudgecicle - Pt Bar - Banana.. About 1300 calories (which is on the lowside for me as I am suppose to eat 1500 minimum) and 58 grms pt

i still check myself. i don't weigh every day; now knowing what 4oz is vs 2, 3 or 6. my serving spoons are my measuring cups - 1.4c/1.2c/1.3c...so forth. hard to guess when dinning out - but you "know" after a period of time what a meal should consists of; salad plate your best marker to gauge by.

when i feel i'm eating too much - i break out my scale & measuring cups to check myself, not a bad habit to form.
