To snack in between meals or not to snack
GreenTealael replied to Kris77's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My team is firmly against snacking the further out you get they say simply stick to scheduled meal times. I agree with them because you can condition yourself (even into hunger like situations that don't actually exist) based on routine (think Pavlov's work) I try to drink more cal free fluids instead . Your team my have a different view. Ask them how they feel about snacking the further out you get. CONGRATS on your success β€ -
Jan. 27th: Current struggle- lazy with food again, I'd rather eat yogurt than prep anything else for myself unless it was made in bulk and needs to be finished. People around me are starting to notice (asking what I ate for the day) and it's making me super self-conscious trying to explain that I ate yogurt for 3 meals in a row but it was perfectly acceptable π. Gotta get it together GTL, Quick before someone accuses me of orthorexia...

CPAP & Aerophagia - Why was I never warned of this!
GreenTealael replied to Wendums's topic in Rants & Raves
You are so new that you can totally go back... Space out your meals timings longer, eat 2oz no matter what you think you want, drink/eat slower. Some of us way further out experiment with retraining and it works still. Safe Journey π -

Agreed! We (politely) demand a recipe (please) !!!! -
At this point in my journey I was given the ok by My Team to eat Pizza and Pasta in Italy... MY TEAM! I said never, they said oh yes! I did. They were familiar with me/my issues (or lack thereof) and could advise me on how to deviate and return. My life was not just about surgery or food. That was just a part of it. They understood that when I couldn't. Trust your team and their advice for you...

Jan. 26th: How I eat out: Usually I stick with coffee, tea or water if there isn't anything I can have, or I already ate. I also try to carry a protein candy bar around. I love grabbing something from a market way more than a restaurant. But during my Don't be DB 2019 Campaign, i practice flexibility while maintaining *some* control. Behold, Diner food w/my Ex... you know he paid, in more ways than one, and all the left overs were his πππππππ
