Once you get into solid foods the guidance is something like 1/4 to 1 cup depending on who you ask, but it also varies from person-to-person.

For me the kind of food and just a different day can affect how much I am able to eat. Sometimes I can only put down a few bites, other times I can eat a cup or more.

I also have a 34. Depending on the food- If it's a not so good carb laden food- I can hold a cup easy. Dense protein- just 2 or 3 oz comfortably.

That said-- my doctor said to never eat more than 1/2 cup at any given meal no matter WHAT the food is. They just don't want me putting more than that in the tiny space to be sure it stays tiny and I don't take in too many calories and such.
