Proud2BMe 1,016 Posted June 1, 2016 When you first start out eating normal food it's going to be around 2-3 ounces. I used an empty plastic pudding container to portion my food. However, as time goes by you will be able to eat more. I'm one year out and can eat more than a cup of food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Montana Gal 448 Posted June 1, 2016 I am a little over 3 1/2 months post op and can eat about 4oz of Protein first then a bit of veggies(5-6 asparagus spears). As far as drinking goes, Water is no problem and it takes me about 30-40 minutes to drink an 8-11oz Protein shake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieLogical 8,710 Posted June 1, 2016 I am 21 months post-op. I can usually eat about 3-5 oz. in one sitting. A little more if it's something with a high liquid content, like chili. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dashofsunshine 875 Posted June 2, 2016 I'm 18 months out and still max out at 4 oz. If it's meat or something fairly dense, usually more like 3 oz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
