Everyone's restriction is different - also I find I can eat more in the afternoon than i can in the evening - no idea why?

Yes it can vary but there can be definitely a big difference between what people even with the same op can have. Weird huh? I know I am not pushing how much I can eat, I stop as soon as I feel anything like fullness, and recently my restriction has been more but it is weird seeing people say a few teaspoons when I know I can have a lot more than that. It means we have to work harder I guess lol. Would be interesting to see stats on now many go on to lose the 100% of weigh loss required in each group. Guess those figures not collated by anyone.
We all have individual journeys, thats for sure

Oh most definitely. I never fill myself as I hate that full feeling it makes me so nervous haha - weird huh!
The difference between each individual journey is huge as well - some people have the same op at the same time but will end at different stages or stall at different stages etc. I have watched so many people get disheartened on here because they see others speeding ahead which makes me real sad actually because we should all enjoy and make the most of our own journeys.
My biggest struggle wasn't shifting the weight, it dropped off me but the mental and emotional side is what I found the toughest. When I hit around 6 months I lost who I was I was scared of who I was becoming I was scared of becoming in the spot light etc. I'm from a small town so when I go out for a drink which is rare I get a ridiculous amount of attention - it's nice that people want to compliment me but sometimes they don't shut up lol and I want to become invisible again.
It's a strange old ride!

That's exactly how I eat I ate the protein then the asparagus
Me too. All meals are planned around the protein, except for maybe breakfast if I am having cereal. I feel fuller on eggs and beans at brekkie but I also get problems then with constipation, have to mix it up a bit lol.

Yes it is the green sticks lol. It is soooo good for you, it has 0 fat, minimal calories (I believe it is around 25 per 5 sticks) and is packed with antioxidants, vitamin A,C,D,E,K and apparently stuff that potentially helps our bodies fight off cancers and things. I'm a real asparagus fan just because it's nothing but goodness lol. Try to have it at least twice a week
Thank you Hun! X

You are very sweet TB
Looks like a very nice dinner. I just would say too many potatoes and would leave only one on my plate but add some carrots, cauliflower, green beans or other veg. But amount in total would be similar.

They are the only carbs I eat all day. I have one meal with carbs in. I also live alone so having lots of different veg isn't economical for me
