How much can u eat at 1 year out?

Hello everyone,

I am about 14 months post op and feeling hungry pretty much all the time. I've found myself grazing alot and I was wondering what is the maximum amount of food those atleast one year out are able eat at one time.

About 6 oz is my limit. More dence foods a little less. I still try to portion out my food and store in small containers so I dont' overdo it.

The only time I feel the desire to graze is if I have carbs, or more carbs than usual. Thankfully I don't keep junk in the house.

I don't mean to sound bad but how much CAN you eat is the wrong question...it's how much should you eat.

Hunger all the time... I would check a few things.

Acidy tummy feels like hunger. Try adding a ppi for a few weeks

Are you hydrated? Thirst feels like hunger. Do you know how to Fluid load between meals to increase length of time before hunger?

Do you eat enough at a meal to feel satiated? Helps with grazing management.

Do you follow sleeve rules...protein first etc etc

Are you letting sugary or bad carb foods in? That makes me hungrier than anything. I even avoid most fruits as the sugar makes me hungry. bread Pasta taters....all make me hungry.

Could you be searching for emotional comfort in food again? The ole head hunger thing.

Anyway some things to think about. Hang in there!!
