New trick to reduce eating portion



Recommended Posts

By accident I came across a new trick that has reduced my eating. What happened was while having lunch I was leaning forward and suddenly I felt extra restriction. I tried it three times and it worked. I don't know if it will work for all you fellow members but it works for me.

Hmmm, will have to give that a try.

I've noticed this as well. When I get too full I usually sit back some so I don't feel so uncomfortable. Still working on not eating those last 2-3 bites at meals. It's so hard not to sometimes.

I struggle with leaving the last bites as well. Sometimes I will throw it in the garbage to make sure I don't go back to it.

I interrupt my meal. Five minutes in, I get up, go to the bathroom, wash my hands, come back. Often my appetite is satisfied but the signal didn't have time to reach my brain. It's easier to identify then if I want to keep eating or if I'm really satisfied.

I use salad plates or saucers... helps me keep my portions smaller.

I thought it was just me and a part of the healing process since I was sleeved 12 days ago! Very uncomfortable. I guess this will teach me to sit up straighter while eating! LOL.

Have a great day!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
