Am I Eating Too Much?

[healthbound1 69]

I am 6 days post-op and allowed full liquids. I can drink one cup of my Protein Shake or 1 cup of Soup at a time (although it takes me about 20-30mins). Is that too much?

It seems like other people can only get a 1/4 to 1/2 cup in at a time.

Thank you for any replies.

Healthbound1,

I didn't have any problems with drinking after surgery. I made sure to drink slowly. You will find as you start to eat more solid food, you will feel restriction with a smaller amount.

I had grilled shark last night, which was the densest Protein I have eaten since my surgery six weeks ago and was only able to eat 2 ounces.

Good luck with your weight loss journey.
