Guys, help! I am so worried my sleeve is stretched out :((((

I just ate 5 1/2 ounces of a combination of chicken and rice in some peanut sauce, it comes out to almost 2/3 a cup. I am a little over 7 months out, and I am so scared my sleeve is huge! Can anyone help or give advice? I'm really worried my stomach is too big, especially since most people on here say that they can only eat 2 or so ounces. I know that eventually out sleeves are supposed to hold a little more, but I feel like that comes way father out, like a year or so! So my concern is that my sleeve is going to continue to get big and by a year out I'll be able to eat like I used to! This may sound irrational, but I am very fearful! Please help if you can!

I was told to expect that my stomach would hold 1/2 to 1 cup of food around the six month stage, so 2/3 cup sounds about right.
