I am just curious how some of you are eating 12 weeks. Just curious if others are going by ounces or like by a cup? My dietician says you should only be able to eat 3/4 cup of food per meal at 12 weeks. I have other people that are sleeved like me that are eating more than that and still losing. Some are weighing there food. Just want some opinions on how other people are handling it. I just don't want to stretch anything out. So confused

I either measure everything, or know by the size bowl that I used to measure into (for instance cottage cheese fits nicely in half of one of my travel containers.) interestingly enough I have bowls from the 1950s that fit the exact amounts of many of the foods I eat. I noticed at one of my stalls that I wasn't eating enough calories.

I am 3 1/2 months out. I weigh my meat (3 oz) and most of the time measure my veggies (1/4-1/2 cup). Usually I can eyeball the veggies and don't really worry about it. I ALWAYS weigh my meat though. I used to only eat 2 oz of meat, but I work out consistently and needed more food.

      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...

        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.
