    I'm similar. For me, it's 75% mental.

    I would think that is pretty normal, if that is what your body is used to. Maybe just start by cutting a little at a time and then cut more and more as your body gets used to it??

    I make mixing bowl sized salads several times a week. This week it’s been leftover homemade Greek salad and chopped “Greek” chicken on a bag of mixed greens. Sadly, it’s all eaten up now.

    So making homemade paneer and grilled bell peppers with commercial Masala Tikka sauce for the next batch of giant salads.

    I also like to take a carton of tomato soup, add a can of diced tomatoes, Italian or herbes de Provence and chopped ham or Italian chicken sausage. It makes a huge pot of thick, filling soup, and fills a large pot.
