Erica Camarillo-Ramos got a reaction from svancisenicky in Portion size at 5 weeks after Gastric Plication Surgery
At around 3 weeks I ate a bit too much and felt pain in my stomach. After that I never tried to push it until this week. Now I don't feel full but stop eating because I get scared that I may over do it again and because I know I shouldn't be eating that much anyway. So I try to stick to no more than a cup at every meal though I feel that I can probably eat more than that. That's the frustrating part. I want to feel restricted and the fact that I don't makes me feel like I just wasted money

I'm 5 weeks post-op and I'm concerned that I'm being able to eat too much and not having any tummy issues. For example today's menu:
Breakfast 4 oz Protein shake
snack 1/2 cup mixed fruit
lunch 3oz chicken salad with 4 wheat crackers and a small cookie
Snack SF Popsicle
1/2 a small bag of Cheetos ( my daughters leftover... I know, Shame on me)
Dinner: 3-4 oz chicken with 1/2 cup of broccoli rice casserole
( dinner was at 5:30pm) and I know I'll be hungry around 8pm so might have another meal or snack!
See, I'm eating tons!! I hear and read people eating 1/3 of what I just wrote :-(
Is anyone else able to eat this much?!!
