I have been able to eat like that for a while. Probably since month 9 definitely at month 12.

A lot of the things that people worry about like very small capacity are for a very limited time like the first 6 months, unless you have some other issues going on.

Thanks for that because I'm still learning being 3 1/2 weeks out. Looking forward to this!

Can i just say i love the idea is this thread. I haven't had money to get a kitchen scale so i have been using the few measuring cups i have and just eyeballing things. Taking my time and trying to feel out cues for when I'm close to full so i can stop. It's still hard almost 3 months out but its coming along. Still having trouble with timing and how fast im eating. How long does it usually take you guys to finish a meal? I try to get it all in by 30 to 40 minutes. I have no real idea how much im actually eating which makes me uncomfortable. Didn't mean to hijack just been really scared with my eating since im eating solids for the most part now. So many questions, i need a wls buddy lol.

This scale is affordable and accurate. I have been using it for 1.5 years.

Thanks for the recommend. Hopefully my sister follows through with her idea of getting me a food scale for Xmas lol.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
