Portion Sizes

At 3 months out I can eat a 4oz yogurt with no pain or problems but a 1.5 to 2oz meat of any kind is all I can eat. Is anyone else able to eat a larger portion of something soft than with siemobe solid?

I much weight have you lost so far. I am 5 weeks out and still trying to remember to eat something because i am rarely hungry. Using a timer to help me remember.

Once the worst swelling passes post-op, everyone can eat more soft foods than solid Protein. That capacity for soft foods increases as time goes by, so it becomes more important to remember to eat firm Protein first. I can eat a microwave bag of popcorn now, but I still max out at about 3 oz. of firm protein with a little veggies and some starch.
