Hi all,
About 6 mo out now. I'm finding pacing myself while eating is difficult, esp. in college when you're always short on time.
In general though, I haven't seen my capacity change since the beginning to now, it can take me five, ten or fifteen, thirty minutes, I'm still only going to be able to fit half a cheesestick, or half a container of yogurt in or x amount of other things. If anything, these days, my capacity is less.
How long do you usually take to eat? Tips for eating slower? I also find myself eating a bit quicker because food is just... good, and I don't really think about eating super slow anymore.
Although I'm not eating unhealthy and mostly Protein based, I worry I will stretch my sleeve (I did over eat a few times since leaving home but thats MOSTLY subsided) and sometimes eating at the rate I've been at has made me not feel very well physically and/or emotionally.
Should I stop eating right before I'm full, or until I'm COMFORTABLY full? I just feel stress and guilt because I honestly don't know.
I've had a harder time since leaving home and I'm honestly doing my best while struggling to get protein in which will lead to "I need another bite of this chicken" and then feeling awful for it.
I don't chug but I kind of gulp Water, too. Could a negative effect come from this?
