Forever plan meals and watch what I'm eating?

I am lucky that my surgeon and dietician don't believe in counting calories, fat, protein or anything else. From day 1 I have not counted anything. I have made a conscious decision to eat healthy and make the most of my window of opportunity to lose as much weight as I can. Of course I look for higher protein foods and choose these over everything else but I don't keep track of anything.

I am over 2 years out and I no longer count, weigh or write down anything.

With time you learn and I know that I am getting my protein in without even thinking about it.

The majority of the time I make good food choices and this keeps my weight stable. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy treats, drink wine, etc I do. Life becomes very normal.

Hey Spirited! =]
I'm 3 months post op and I know I probably should be but I'm not really worrying about counting protein and meal plans and all that... I mean sure when I pick a meal I'll go for somthing that would have a higher protein quantity but I'm not going out of my way to make sure I get in as much as I can... I'm basically eating how I use to (not having meal plans) just without all the bad food =]
Good luck!!

Will I have to Forever watch what I'm eating? I mean plan meals and count protein and write it down?
Doesn't the sleeve give you a life not bound by food? I'm concerned I'll forever be counting and planning food??
