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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
