chicha2012 3 Posted January 5, 2013 One of my questions is, when you cook for ur family do they eat what you eat ??? Is it hard to see other people eating a lot more ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iegal 460 Posted January 5, 2013 Actually I was disgusted at how much they ate and how quickly. I cook what ever they want but make it more healthy. Not a lot of carbs, more focused on fresh and vegtables. Don't want the family following in my footsteps. So bring out the cooking godess in you while you stick to VSG diet plan. Use a smaller plate put on top of a regular dinner plate for yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nadoue 158 Posted January 5, 2013 My son is 5 years old, I cook for the both of us and when we go out, I order one entree for us. It's a lifestyle really, you will get used to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kapoorvilla 117 Posted January 5, 2013 One thing I noticed was how much less I need to feed everyone now. It was a reality check to how much I was really eating. This life to a healthier way has been a journey. We no longer fry or bread meats and veggies. Process foods are alot less. Sodas are out long ago. The trick is to do things gradually. I never make anyone feel like they have to but both my children and my husband have slimmed down not even knowing they were making an effort. They were never big but better eating couple with a busy schedule full of fun activities has made them very healthy! 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chicha2012 3 Posted January 5, 2013 I guess what im afraid of is not being able to contain myself to not eat as much as i do now!!!! Its just scary , and my family isn't very supportive so im sure they will make it difficult for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kapoorvilla 117 Posted January 5, 2013 I thinking I hadn't had enough calories today overeat at supper. It was miersiable, I was begging my body to throw up for relieve! You will not over eat. This was my first time over eating and it will be my last. I am 4weeks out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kapoorvilla 117 Posted January 5, 2013 The meal was one lean beef patty, 1/4 cup greens and 1/2 baked potato no toppings. I eat the beef and greens. I took a few bites of potato and knew I should quit but thought I need these calories, I lost dinner.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kapoorvilla 117 Posted January 5, 2013 Not trying to discourage you but please look at those who had complications. Leaks and cut bowel to name a few. I had a cut bowel it is very rare but that rare complication happened to a real person. Please read Iggy's stories of a leak. Be sure that your willing to risk what may happen. I understand wanting to lose but I also know complications are very real. I am not wanting to discourage you just asking you carefully consider all possibilities.
