The "TOOL" does work.....

Yeap..it does i have lost 8 pounds....going back to my basic's.....and i have always been a tooter so here i am tooting my horn.. and wanting to let you know the tool still works even after 5 years of being a loser....DR CLARK I LOVE YOU STILL...lol...my hero.....he gave me my tool and yeah i still say he is the best.....gave me my life back....

Good for you!!! Yep... mine still reminds me it is there from time to time... when ever I abuse it!!!

OOH ed so abuses his...lol...guess i have to since i have gained, but not due to over eating at once...the grazing is what got me and i know it

So I am curious if you ladies who are a lil further out will share with us a few things.

How good is your restriction now?

How much do you eat at each setting?

Have you regained?

How is your hunger?

Do you drink carbonated beverages?

Do you drink with your meals?

Thanks in Advance,
Jeannie

if i do a cup of cottage cheese i some times can not eat the whole 8 oz..but now i can eat like 2 cups of salad...i bet i could eat a cup of mashed taters, but .....thats a carb..8 oz of say chicken would be it..i am almost certain i could not eat 8 oz of chicken..

I have regained about 25 pounds....stress eating and not exercising..and stopped eating breakfast....i have lost 8 pounds in less than 2 weeks..getting back on track...
some foods still bother me...though i may eat it today..tomorrow it will not agree with me...

hunger??? not sure i am ever actually there..

I do and have drank carbonation, but as a rule i do not, have 7 up when i do not feel well. but as a rule i just do not...burp and belch for some time with a soda.. though Ed does drink diet pepsi......and nope do not drink with my meals still stick pretty much to the 30 min rule, unless i am thristy...and i still have a couple of good things i do such as using small plates and baby spoons

Thank you for letting us know it does work..
I am a tooter to ,but its from gas.lol

Way to go keep up the good work

Thanks for answering my questions.  When I had my preop testing done the lady who did my EKG had wls six years prior.  She told me she was still only able to eat a cup of food per sitting and I was amazed.  I knew right then I was making the best decision possible for myself.  I love to hear of long term successes, its so inspirational.  Even with a few pounds regained, it surely doesn't put one back up to being morbidly obese. 

Peace and Love,
Jeannie

my all time low was 162 and i was very happy with that....from an all time high of 293 yeah unless i were to creep back up over that 200 again....the pouch can and does stretch i suppose if you over eat enough times....i know ed can eat well over 8 oz at a time....and from a couple of ladies i know they can as well...at one time...i can not at one time but i can go back if i so should desire....others have told me when they go out to eat ...they will eat the rolls and drink water so they can eat their food....i would be sick...drinking and eating also does not agree with me when i have had a big gulp after i have eaten...i hic up too when i am full...now i do ...do sugar i know Sherri does not...but my body knows that the sweetner is a sugar and does not like that so i just stay low in sugars
