I just had surgery on Wednesday, September 2. I am home now and have no trouble with the amount of food. I ate an entire pack of instant grits (about 1 cup). I later drank an entire 11oz Protein Shake in 1 sitting. I later at a s/f Jello cup and an applesauce cup. I thought my pouch was only able to hold 2 tablespoons. How am I able to comfortably eat this much? Did my doctor forget to make the pouch? Should I be concerned?

They say day 4 it starts getting easier. My 2 week "liver shrink" diet was a Protein Shake for Breakfast, 1 for lunch and a lean cuisine for dinner. Also I was allowed 3 high Protein 100 calorie Snacks a day. Stick with it. It is soooo worth it in the end! Keep your eye on the prize!
