Should I get a fill??



Recommended Posts

My weight loss is slowing drastically- I have lost 1.5 lbs in the last three weeks. I feel like I am hungry a lot more often and definitely feel like I can eat more. I am still PBing more often than I like but have recently noticed that if I eat the way I am supposed to (ie. chewing a lot and pausing between bites, and taking small bites) that I can get A LOT of food down.

I think the reason I have held off on a second fill is because I feel like I PB too much. But I really think that by following the rules more closely I can avoid that even if I am a little tighter.

What do you all think? Is it time??

PB ing is ALOT about not taking small enough bites and chewing well.

Everything else sounds like you need a fill. Go for it!

How much of a regular meal can you eat? How many cups? How often are you really hungry?

Sounds like you do need a fill. I can eat maybe 1 cup of food before I am feeling pretty full. Kinda depends on the food, heavy things like meat, it is more like 1/2 cup, if that. I don't really get very hungry anymore, esp if I have a protien shake in the morning, that tends to really fill me up.

I would say to make sure that you can manage your PB's before you get the fill. If you can manage them at this fill level, then get a little tighter and make sure you can still manage them. Also, remember that for alot of people what they can and can't eat changes with nearly every fill!

I can easily eat a cup of food or more at a meal if I chew correctly. And I am pretty tight in the morning so I usually have a scoop of chocolate Protein Powder in a big cup of coffee. After that I will have two meals and usually a snack at some point.I am eating healthy foods, and if I really crave something that is not good for me I have a strict "two bite" rule that has been working very well for me!

I am really hungry all the time, though. I think I am going to go for it.
