portion sizes after wls
I'm 4 mos away from my second suriversary. I CAN eat more now than I could a year ago. But I think that the portions I eat now are kind of what people are supposed to eat. I have done a fair amount of traveling in Europe and the portion sizes there are miniscule compared to what people here often eat. I think eating less volume is good in so many ways: It's good for my health (research seems to show that the less rats and monkeys eat, the longer they live); it's good for my pocketbook; it's good for my emotional health (not burying my feelings in food); and I think it is good for the planet - the less I eat, the less of a footprint I leave (the less energy it takes to feed me).
