bwhitty 1 Posted January 7, 2011 I have a question, IF you feel you are at your sweet spot are you eating around 1c total (protein + vegs/carbs)/meal? I know everyone is different but just curious if there is a standard here. If you can eat 2c, you probably aren't at the spot, right? Just curious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jen36 1 Posted January 11, 2011 Well I think I may be at mine I am at 6.66cc's in a 10cc band and I am lucky if I can eat 1/2cup of food. I find myself leaning towards junk food it seems to be the other food that goes right down with now problem so I am getting calories from somewhere. I know I am probably too tight but with no insurance right now I cant afford to go back and get any taken out. 1cup of food sounds like that should be a good amount just make sure you are getting all your Protein in.

annalise 0 Posted January 13, 2011 I'm at a good fill point right now after almost a year out of surgery. I strive for 3/4 to 1 cup food at lunch only. I can't eat food in the morning before my shake and sometimes not at night. Only when I've been moving around for a while in the day. The type of food makes a difference too. Some days are different. I've had days that the only thing that would go down is a Protein Shake. I've gone over the amount of 1cup but rarely. Usually with things like popcorn or Pork rinds. You can't really easily measure pork rinds since they melt down in your mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
