[vickie 3]

soi i'm 11 days out and today I ate a few spoons of runny oatmeal and 1/2 cup of coffee for Breakfast. Then no snack and at lunch I had like 6 ounces of runny mash potatos. Why can I eat so much.when all of you guys get full offa couple of bites of anything evena few months out. Am I eating too much. I know i'm not getting enough liquids so i'll work on that.

Hello there vickie,

I'm not exactly sure but perhaps its because you are eating your food a bit runny. The more solid you prepare your food, the more restriction you will feel. Of course do not make your food more thick if it not a part of your plan, I'm just speculating.

It is a lot different than what I personally experienced. I didn't get to eat oatmeal until over a month out.

Good luck!

Not everyone is like that. I have less restriction. I was still on liquids at 11 days out. At 3 to 4 weeks out, I could easily eat 4-6 ounces. Now at 13 weeks, I can eat 6-8 ounces. I don't push my stomach or try to eat extra, that is just what I can eat comfortably. At 4 weeks, I had to eat 5-6 small meals a day to get everything in. At 13 weeks, I eat 3 meals most days, get everything in and am not hungry in between. I also eat 800 to 1200 calories. I was worried that I could eat more, but I am still losing. Check out my ticker. I have lost 39 pounds since surgery on Nov 22, and 63 pounds since I first went to see the surgeon in June.

I was the same way. Runny food just slides on through for some of us. When the food firms up, you will start to notice the restriction more.
