I'm still having trouble with this!!

I opted for the sleeve bc I was never a "sweets", carb person but I could EAT...alot. a "volumous" eater, I used to joke. lol

however, its not funny anymore... although I do eat healthily, avoiding carby, doughy, sweety (anything I basically should be). I feel that I am able to eat TOO much of anything.. I have a food scale & containers w measurements of what I should be eating, but I have yet to put them to use..

I rem learning that if you "eat properly" (we all know Protein 1st) the sleeve will do its job!

I just feel like I am able to consume too much @ one sitting, therefore my calories are prob through the roof.

what I ate today, really most days..

2 (medium) fried eggs, 2 small saug patties 1/2 dollar size..

lunch was rotessire chicken & salad w feta, toms and organic dressing.. dinner will prob be more of the same

did I weigh/measure anything?? nooo... so I'm sabotaging myself :( ugh

I can't eat two eggs. One is my limit. I don't weigh anything, though I do measure when I can. I'm not super diligent about it, I can now visualize how much I can eat--it's not much at all. I use smaller plates too.

You know what you need to do, so I'm not going to repeat it. My scale is my friend. However, consider giving yourself a "reboot" and do a week of liquids. That might get you back on track.

At christmas i purchased some new pryex on sale. At first when i got them, i thought what the heck am i going to do with these tiny 1 cup bowls. Well, turns out they will be perfect for my Portion Control when i can't weigh. Perhaps get yourself some small containers, measure out your meals a bit to see what ones they fit in and at least you will always have a guide by using the same containers for your meals.

      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.
