Had a few leftover vegetables to use up before they went to God (or the bin) so decided to make a 4 egg omelette. Celery, capsicum, tomatoes & cheese. It split when I was flipping it so looks a bit messy. Had half for lunch yesterday & will have the other half tonight.

Mr. felt for French Toast so we went to one of our fave coffee places for Breakfast (at like 8am! which is weird cuz we don't eat breakfast lol)

I ordered a Shrimp Cake Benny and had like half of one and a bite or two of the potatoes and salad: calculated 322 cals for what i ate.

He got his french toast (see the bottom pic), and ate it all plus my leftovers. I am honestly amazed at how much the guy can eat and remain normal sized 😳

...also!

Interesting eating strategy i discovered:

For those who have challenges with slowing down their eating, eat with your non-dominant hand!

I am nursing an injured arm (its in a sling), and i have to eat with my left hand (im right handed). And man does it ever slow things way down. I probably also ate less than i normally would cuz i think i just got tired of the process.

I'm always surprised how little some of you people seem to eat. Like one of my meals is more than others are eating in a day??

😕

well, i DO eat "little" at one time/sitting, but i eat these little meals like 5-6 times a day so i figure it all adds up?

its not that im trying to eat less, i just get full quickly. and i HATE the feeling of being full (its very physically uncomfortable for me...)

Yeah, I stopped looking at this thread because I always feel like I am eating way too much seeing how little some people eat before feeling full. But then I compare what I eat to what other non-surgically enhanced people eat and i think ok I don't eat that much really

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
