how long does it take for a stomach to shrink, internaly that is

(4 Posts)

I thought it shrunk too. Doh!

I've been dieting since mid September and my stomach felt smaller after a couple of weeks, I was surprised at how quickly it happened. It's weird, I still have bad days and after nearly 3 months I am still retraining my body, but on a bad day now I might eat a 1/3 or 1/2 tube of Pringles whereas before I could probably eat a whole one and loads of other crap.

your stomach doesnt shrink, it just gets used to having less food.
