I'm still having trouble with this!!

I opted for the sleeve bc I was never a "sweets", carb person but I could EAT...alot. a "volumous" eater, I used to joke. lol

however, its not funny anymore... although I do eat healthily, avoiding carby, doughy, sweety (anything I basically should be). I feel that I am able to eat TOO much of anything.. I have a food scale & containers w measurements of what I should be eating, but I have yet to put them to use..

I rem learning that if you "eat properly" (we all know Protein 1st) the sleeve will do its job!

I just feel like I am able to consume too much @ one sitting, therefore my calories are prob through the roof.

what I ate today, really most days..

2 (medium) fried eggs, 2 small saug patties 1/2 dollar size..

lunch was rotessire chicken & salad w feta, toms and organic dressing.. dinner will prob be more of the same

did I weigh/measure anything?? nooo... so I'm sabotaging myself :( ugh

I can't eat two eggs. One is my limit. I don't weigh anything, though I do measure when I can. I'm not super diligent about it, I can now visualize how much I can eat--it's not much at all. I use smaller plates too.

You know what you need to do, so I'm not going to repeat it. My scale is my friend. However, consider giving yourself a "reboot" and do a week of liquids. That might get you back on track.

At christmas i purchased some new pryex on sale. At first when i got them, i thought what the heck am i going to do with these tiny 1 cup bowls. Well, turns out they will be perfect for my Portion Control when i can't weigh. Perhaps get yourself some small containers, measure out your meals a bit to see what ones they fit in and at least you will always have a guide by using the same containers for your meals.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
