Was able to eat 2 hard shell tacos today... Is that considered a lot?

[mikeross 216]

Yesterday marked 2 months post op for me... I am down 51lbs since surgery day. I have busted my ass working this weight off since 1 week out. To Celebrate I picked up 2 hard shell supreme tacos from taco bell. I was able to eat 1 within the 5 mins drive home and ate the second one about 10 mins later. I was very surprised I was able to eat that much and feel pretty good afterwards. Literally 1 month ago my wife came home with taco bell, I took 2 bites of my wifes taco and was stuffed.

So is this considered a lot of food for 2 months out. The meal was just shy of 400 calories but I am still under for the day but slightly over my carb limit.

I'm 4 months out and I can't quite finish one of them unless I go really really slow. I can't see myself every eating two of them.

Haha... Two bites of your wife's taco....

Almost 2 years out and I can't eat 2 tacos. One fills me up. I could eat the other one a couple hours later.

I had a comment and then edited it because it was a stupid comment. Everyone else continue..

I'm 8 mos post op and can eat one soft corn taco And feel full. I could eat a second one hours later, also (2-4hours).

Although...if I'd only eaten sliders like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese and/or Protein shakes, for example, I wonder if I'd be able to eat more. I don't wonder enough to give it a go, mind you :-p

I'm 4 months out but still not eating taco shells, potatoes, bread, crackers or rice. Still can only eat 2-3 oz at a time. A taco sounds wonderful!!

Me too! Im almost 10 weeks out and have gotten a chicken soft taco from Del Taco and ate the "guts" but I was full after one. I think I would puke at this point if I ate the tortilla too even if I was allowed.

Why do you think you would puke?

11 weeks out and there's no way I could eat a whole one.

Gee mike... I think they are all telling you it's a lot

It would be easier to eat a hard shell over a soft shell though.

Only because I have no more room left in my sleeve. Also i have this Idea that the tortilla would expand in my sleeve and it would come back up. I'm sure I'm overreacting but for the moment it keeps me from eating breads, tortillas, grain etc and I'm not allowed those til 6 months out.

So I would say look at several things as a man you have a bigger stomach than us women... Yes there is Kirk there... But are we compare Taco Bell to Taco Bell right because a "real" taco could be much different.

Just thinking out loud here
