Man, I've been eating several meals throughout the day, but smaller porportions. Just about any meal I go out to eat now I have trouble finishing (and I'm 200lbs). I guess your stomach adjusts to it.
It does. I easily bloat now when I try to eat a larger meal in a single sitting.
I wonder why that is? I've heard reputable doctors say the "stretching and shrinking" stories about your stomach are merely myth.
Nope. There are folds in your stomach called rugae that allow it to shrink and swell. Basic anatomy should be well known to reputable doctors.
Edit: Sorry, not trying to be a jerk. No offense to you, Amused.
No offense at all. Note I never claimed it as fact, just that I had heard it. LOL I guess I never looked deeper after hearing that and just took it as true.
That's cool.
