Portion size 6 months out...1/2 unwich?



Recommended Posts

I just demolished 1/2 of a Beach Club unwich from Jimmy Johns (no mayo, no onion)) and am a little concerned I was able to eat that much. Before you jump on the no fast food band wagon, I left my lunch on my counter at home, and don't have many options close to me. Should I be concerned I about this portion size 6 months out?

Well, the link you provided doesn't really give information on what is in the sandwich, just the nutritional information, so without knowing that it's hard to say.

At six months out I could eat a whole sandwich WITH bread sometimes, depending what was on it. Dense meats piled high, no. But tuna salad or pimento cheese or Peanut Butter, yes.

You're probably fine. I don't think the Unwich has bread, and you say you ate only half of it.

I could eat a half an unwich at 6 months. It's about 4.5 oz of food.

I think that's fine. I'm able to eat about the same amount. And I feel the unwich was a good choice. I do occasionally eat out, it's a fact of life. Things happen.

You are completely fine and the unwich was a good choice. I've had them before as well; sometimes I can only have half and sometimes I can eat the whole thing and it seems to be pretty much normal. It was at least 6 months post op before I could do that though.
