Guest guest Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 I don't think you are shrinking, I do think that your protien shakes are satisfying the 'fill factor'. If you are substituting a shake for food at a meal, this keeps your 'fill factor' at bay. I like to do this from time to time myself, and keep me " In toe " with my new tool. I do this to remember that it's only a tool and if I eat too much and abuse it, it will get larger with time. Normally, the pouch will grow from 2 oz size to an 8-10 oz. size after a couple years. The same thing happens even if there is no surgery with a normal stomach. A shake for a meal gets to be just enough to satisfy and when the food comes in, the person eats less. Keep up the good work!!! You've progressed incredibly. shrinking?? I was wondering if this has happened to anyone here? Last week I started doing 1 shake for breakfast a small lunch and a shake for dinner and when i do eat I can only eat a couple of bites maybe 4 or 5 and I use to be able to eat like 9 or 10 bites. Is this my stomach shrinking? Dont get me wrong i love it but I am curious... Miami FL 370/153/130 _____ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
