one more question about erosion...

ok...so how do u know if ur eating too much in order to cause ur pouch to expand? I mean i dont over eat...but at the same time i can eat an ok amout. Is there a cetain limit (like oz. wise) that we (bansters) should not be consuming 'over' at each meal? should i be a stickler for measuring out my food or just go by how i feel? if ur pouch is overstuffed do u get a feeling or a sensation from it?

If you are over eating you will feel it. If you have good restriction and you can eat more than your pouch can hold, it will sit in the bottom of your esophagus, and that's kind of the 'golfball' feeling that we describe. They don't really know what causes erosion though, because even model bandsters can erode.

I don't measure anything other than to know how many calories I'm eating. Beyond that, it's just eating until I'm not hungry anymore.
