I usually stop before I am full. I eat half cup meals 3 times a day. I find a nice cup of decaf helps me if I start getting hungry or I get up and do something. The nurse told me some people are just always hungry. I can't say my meals make me feel full for 4 hours. I just find ways to deal with it or have a small snack like jello, v8,coffee also I drink tons of water and crystal light. It never hurts to check with the doctor if you feel something is wrong or not working right.

Am on iPad and I can't figure out how to join a thread. Can someone please help me? Any other site tips are welcome. Thank you in advance. Helen

I just figured it out by accident.

Wow not one

You were right the watermelon is soOooooo bad. What is worse is that the shots irritated my tongue really bad and can't take them.

I saw $3.21 today Richmond, va. Hey Enuff i am so glad to see someone from home!!!!!

I so feel your pain. I swear by Crystal Light Fruit Punch. I love it. Unfortunately you just have to keep trying different things until you find one that works for you. I can't say that I dont ever miss my diet coikes, but it gets better every day. Hang in there.

Congrats on your exciting journey! My advice is to practice chewing a lot and eating slowly. Dont drink 30 minutes before and 60 minutes after a meal and stop all carbonated drinks. Also if you are not exercising maybe start walking. I am sure you will get some more suggestions, but whatever you are supposed to after try working them in now. Best of luck to you!

I understand people not wanting to tell others.. For me I think it would be hard to hide. I was told by my doctor to carry measuring cups with me so I could measure my food wherever I am not to mention how long it takes me to eat such a small portion. Of course I am only allowed 1/2 cup a meal so it is probaby more obvious for me the most of you.

Several Years ago I was at a bar with my brothers and some of their friends and some guys came up to me and asked If i could settle a bet. They had bet how much I weighed. I never told anyone this. My brothers knew they upset me but not why. They chased the guys out of the bar. I have great brothers!

I really appreciate that you take time to post from your experience. You are one of the people I look for and you inspire me! Thank you for sticking in there.

Wow you have a lot on your plate. Good for you making sure you have time to take care of yourself. I do volunteer work for m hobby. I am sure you will find something that works for you. Good Luck.

I never had problems taking my pills. i just took them one at at time instead of all at once like i normally do. Helen

Have been told to eat 3 half cup meals and one snack if needed. All I see on this site is one cup meal. Anyone else eating half cup?

I don't think that is a good idea. Just my opinion. I just skip meals that tempt me too much. Not worth it and I cant afford the extra money for doctors so I can break plan. Just typing this it seems pretty crazy.
