Eating Schedule

[coolnessa22 26]

Ok so I am 4 weeks post op and I feel like I'm eating and drinking ALL THE TIME! I try so hard to get my Protein in with drinks and shakes and food and then on top of that the Snacks and Water. So this comes to this question. What does your daily eating schedule look like! And pointers would be great cause again I feel like all I do is eat (small portions) and drink and scared its stretching my pouch!

I eat 3x a day...was told not to snack. Breakfast: dannon light & fit greek yogurt.

Lunch: 2 oz turkey lunchmeat & 1 oz cheeze

Dinner: 2 oz tilapia/2 small pcs broccoli.

I still need 1 Protein shake (30g) per day to supplement so I drink that at some point between meals.

The more you drink the more water you can take in in less time. In my shakes I do half milk and water and that counts toward my water count too.

My surgeon instructions are to eat 3 meals a day NO snacking in between but make your meal enough so it will hold you to your next meal without snacking. Sometimes snacking can get out of hand so I try not to snack at all and just eat at meal time.
