Hi, Patricia! I'll be 5 months post-op on Wednesday. Congrats on your
great weight loss! I am feeling really good about my eating right now. I
can eat a little bit more than a month or so ago, but I'm still losing.
And I am enjoying a much wider variety of choices now. I even had a filet
steak the other night - awesome! The downside of this is that I also do
not dump - so I'm able to eat things that are better left uneaten! But I
am doing well monitoring myself, and haven't let anything get out of hand
at this point. We went out for dinner the other night with friends. They
brought this awesome focaccia bread with garlic olive oil and parmesan
cheese. I ate maybe two bites - enough to taste it and satisfy me. Then I
had probably 1/2 cup of salad before my entree arrived. I ordered chicken
parmesan, and ate the equivalent of about 1/2 of a chicken breast. The
portion was so big that I took home two pieces of chicken, and a side dish
of pasta, so my hubby ate some for lunch the next day, and I had it again
for dinner last night! Three meals out of one dinner is pretty good (for
$12.95). I haven't been afraid to try different and new things. The only
problems I still have are ones I can control - eating too fast, and not
chewing well enough. That is something that I still work on daily.
Congrats again, and keep up the good work. Lap RNY, 9/11/03, 254/189/???

108lbs WOW! Great Job! I am a little over 5 months and eat about 1/2 at a
time.. Some things I eat a little more of, but most of the time I'm lucky
if I can get in the 1/2 cup, I get full quicker now then I did early
post-op... I'm the opposite of most...lol... Open RNY 272/174/145-130
