Strange Wow Moment

My hubby and I went to Atlanta for a concert last week and went out to a restaurant that we always visit when we're in Atlanta.  There's a favorite steak that I always get so as I'm 8 weeks out I decided to go for it.  Well, 3 good bites into it I was full!  I sat with my hubby as he ate and thought how easily 3 months ago I would have had the steak, a potato, side veggies, a salad and maybe even a dessert!  It's awesome to me that I can enjoy just about any kind of food but don't need the massive amounts anymore.

Isn't it wonderful to no longer be under the spell of the hunger beast!?!

Please be careful with the steak, it is so easy to get stuck and you are still so fresh from surgery that you are still healing.  My surgeon would not let us have steak for 6 months.  At over 7 years out it is still hit and miss.  Keep up the good work but just be so careful and eat very small bites and chew real good.

I've found now that I can only get a small portion I really enjoy chewing and savoring the flavor of good food.  I've been really lucky so far that I've been able to eat just about anything.  I'm not trying sugar but everything has been fine.  I have an easy-going pouch ;>)

You sound like your doing good but don't count on that easy going pouch all the time.  One day you might and the next day will be totally different.    Please be careful and just do what your doctor says.
