Thats awesome! congrats..must have felt great! -
So i dont know about you guys...but im three months out and just realized how little i actually eat...me and a friend just bought a chicken ceaser salad..dressing on side...from a deli that we used to eat at all the time...we bought one salad and split it (if thats what u call it...theres still ALOT left over)...anyways..to think we used to eat a whole salad each with two of those little cups of dressing! i love my band!
-
Yes...i always measure my food at home and never really eat out...to see that i actually used to be able to eat that whole salad with all that dressing and wonder why i wasnt loosing weight pre band! To be honest..realizing that actually grossed me out!
