Today I had my 3 fill and forgot to ask and Dr. didn't mention, but how much should I be eating know? Am I still doing 1 cup or should it be like 1/2 cup? Please let me know your experience. Thanks

I think the actual amount of food you can eat will vary with what you are eating. Ultimately it is far less important that you are still losing weight without feeling deprived. My doc doesn't give us volumes to eat instead stressing the as long as I am losing weight then I am eating the right amount.

Every doctor is different. Mine said 3 oz of Protein, 1/2 cup vegies, 1/4 c. start (optional). I limit my carbs severely because I'm trying to control my diabetes with diet alone, so I'll usually have just the Protein and vegies and if still hungry, will just have another 1/2 cup of vegies.

At my sweet spot I'm eating about 900 calories per day.
