Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

It's been a while since I posted but tonight's dinner: 230 grams of chicken shawarma/baba gnoush bowl from Naf Naf grill and an over medium egg. Sometimes I'm low-key astounded that I used to be able to eat the entire bowl (4 or 5 servings now) in one sitting.

Marks and Sparks (Marks and Spencer to the US crew) Chicken Balti. 100g out of the full thing (3.5ish oz) with chicken shredded and 7g Light Philadelphia to take some heat out. No leftovers.

Microwaves in 3.5 mins. Perfect addition to my can’t be a%*ed meal portfolio :-)

Turkey Bagel Sandwich
(No I couldn’t get that last bite in ?)
For those on mobile, I’m 15 months post op & in maintenance

I love seeing energy kcal on labels! I know the poster possibly lives abroad/outside the US and reminds me what the rest of the world thinks food is all about

In the UK and so glad I have all this nutrition info to rely on as well as the tight food standards underlying it. Reason number 99999999 why I think we would be mad to follow through with Brexit!

I thought kcals were the same as calories. No?

Yes its just the more scientific categorization of it

What is the difference between calories and kilocalories?

• The "calorie" we refer to in food is actually kilocalorie. One (1) kilocalorie is the same as one (1) Calorie (upper case C). A kilocalorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water one degree Celsius. Please visit USDA's Nutrient Data Laboratory for additional information.

Yay!!! That seems like a perfect amount that you ate? Were you hungry soon after? Any dumping symptoms? Gosh, I miss watermelon!
