Snack Experiment in Progress
I also have issues with the 5.3 oz yogurts or a whole banana if it's a medium size one. I try to get the smallest they have at the grocery and, if I end up with a few large ones, I might not fini**** all.

I really don't eat many veggies because I need the protein. But last week I decided to eat some baby carrots as my snack rather than my usual almonds.
I couldn't believe how filling they were. And they didn't digest quickly either. At lunch time, I couldn't eat much of anything due to the carrots still sitting there. Think that's my new "go to" food for quick satisfaction and to further help my sleeve limit quantity.
Hi Diane,
It is very hard (impossible for me) to do both at the same time and get adequate protein and even enough veggie for any benefit.
So I've been trying to eat Veggie only snacks as well as a little bit of veggie with protein meals.

For one thing, I have a hard time eating more than 2-2.5 oz of lean protein at a time. I think I could probably fit more in because I can fit in veggies on top of it but it's just too uncomfortable. So, if I have lean protein for lunch and for dinner, that's maybe 4-5 oz. of protein, which is only 30-25 grams of protein.
