Food??!

Hey everyone im am 8 months out as well..and im down 140lbs..i am just wondering what you are all eating.... like?? amount... kate

i usually eat a "pure protein" bar for breakfast 1/2 c. cottage cheese and string cheese for lunch and 2-2.5 oz. of meat w/ 1/4 cup veggies and 1/4 c. fruit for dinner

Katie, first off congratulations you look fantastic. I still try to focus mostly on dense protein especially for lunch and dinner, this is a typical menu for me. Breakfast - 1/2 c. cottage cheese or 1 egg and 2 slices of bacon Lunch - Chef salad with lots of protein Dinner - 2-3 oz of meat and 1/4 c. vegetable I do find myself getting hungrier lately and if I do feel the urge to snack I'll water load and wait about 30 minutes, if I still feel hungry then I'll eat 1/2 protein bar. Dana

I eat mostly protein at each meal but sometimes the carb monster gets me!! Arghhhh!! I am finding that I am "looking" for snacks more...but I am trying very hard to resist the urge!!! I just look in the mirror and realize that the cookie or snack is just not worth it for me...but my new body is!! Lisa 371/341/201/140

Wow Lisa! You look wonderful. And better than that you're out there living life to the fullest! Isn't this surgery truly miraculous? I'm so happy for you. Karen
