  1. First day on full liquids and boy, am I overestimating what I can eat!  It took my almost 2 hours to eat a container of Chobani.  Then, after about 15 minutes I started feeling fuller and fuller and fuller!  I started feeling back to normal late this afternoon so I tried about a third of a cup of soup.  It took relatively no time to realize I'd overdone it again.  Rather than sit and feel bad, I got up and did some work in the garage.  That seems to have helped relieve the pressure a bit.  Any tips from you experienced sleepers for us noobies?  How do I guesstimate how much I can eat?

      The best way that I know is weigh out your food. The first month 2-3oz was plenty and most times 2oz was all I could eat. The goal is to feel satisfied and not overfull. I think it takes awhile to learn your bodies cues. I would eat 2oz and stop. I think 4-5 small meals works best.
