    Need help with portions

    Heather, I am 7 weeks post op as of today, I measure all my food out. I have one of the scales from weight watchers, My doctor says I can eat up to about 9 ounces at lunch and dinner, I am at about 3-6ounces. It takes me about 1 hour to eat, and I am full. I eat only three meals a day. If you eat slower that may help. Try putting your fork down in between each bit and also try using a baby or toddler fork, that seems to help me as well. keep us posted. gwinky

    Why caffeine free

    My doctor says we can drink coffee, it doesn't have to be decaf. However, ever doctor is different and there may be a reason why he/she is telling you that.
