Hey everyone!
I'm about a year out from surgery. The past year has been a pretty steady increase in my capacity for food. I know that that's normal, you're stretching your pouch out.
For the past year, I'd joke with my husband that my capacity was "enough to eat until I felt like I could explode, but I could still send a meal back in a restaurant under the pretense of not liking it"*
The past month or so, I feel like I've reached a slightly larger portion size. I always measure my food out before the meal and lately I feel like I'm able to eat more off my plate. I went from being full after half of a small chicken breast to being able to do the full 4oz and then some of my sides.
I'm curious how far out from your surgery you are, and how much you can eat now. Care to share?
*For the record, I'd never do that! I just had to frequently explain to waitstaff that I didn't eat much when they commented on how little I ate
