KCLatina 16 Posted May 14, 2015 Wow, I feel like an odd ball... I can eat between 1.5-2.5 cups depending on the food. Is there anyone else at this level? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted May 15, 2015 Nope. I'll be 8 mths next week and I still eat about 3/4 of a cup. If it's something like Soup I might be able to eat an entire cup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josefina1210 12 Posted May 16, 2015 I have to weigh every meal otherwise I would eat too much and I'm only five weeks out. That scares me a lot! I don't feel much restriction at 4 oz of Protein which is the limit set by my doctor. I could eat more and that is terrifying to me. Don't be afraid. Just make sure you eat protein first. I can eat carbs like I'd never been sleeved and it scared me too, but it's like double whammy because I wasn't supposed to be eating it anyway. Protein fills me up and keeps me full. I think it has something to do w/ the fact that we start digesting starch in our mouths... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josefina1210 12 Posted May 16, 2015 Wow, I feel like an odd ball... I can eat between 1.5-2.5 cups depending on the food. Is there anyone else at this level? It depends on what I'm eating. I can eat a whole slice of bread but if I put Peanut Butter on it, I can only eat half. I think it's the Protein. If I don't measure I can eat a cup or more of food. If I measure and weigh, I eat way less but I'm still satisfied. Don't be discouraged. As long as you're limiting your carbs and eating protein first, you're on the right track!!
