  1. I'm 2 weeks post surgery, and I'm concerned because it seems like my stomach is a lot bigger than I thought it would be. I normal meal for me is about 1.5 cups of pureed food. This is 12 fluid ounces. It was my understanding that after the surgery my stomach would be 4-6 ounces. So having a stomach twice as large as I expected is very concerning to me. What does a normal meal look like for the rest of you? How much were you eating when you were 2 weeks post op? I'm seriously tempted to drink a bunch of water real fast until I barf, just so I can get an accurate measure of how big my new stomach really is.
  2. Literally the exact same thing happened to me. I lost 15 lbs through the first 9 days. Then my weight went back up 4 lbs, and finally today it went back down a couple. Gaining the weight back happened right when I went from full liquid diet, to a puree diet. It has kind of freaked me out, especially since I have been able to handle so much pureed food, about 1.5 cups at a time. The only thing I can figure is that I got really dehydrated by not tracking my water close enough. I'm now determined to track my water, protein and calories much closer. I'll let you know what happens.
