Pics Of Portion Size Please!!!

[Lucy Ann 0]

Hello,

This is the first time I have posted on any blog let alone this LAP BAND forum but I need help. I got my Lap Band on November 29, 2011 and I feel great but I have just started my soft food diet and need help understanding how much I should be eating. I have no Fluid in my band yet and won't until Jan. but I don't want to risk a band slip or anything. Can anyone out there post a pic of a meal they ate during this time? I also want to thank those who post on this forum it is so helpful for us newbies:) GOD BLESS!!

Lucy

that's easy you should be eating 2 to 3 oz meals. i don't have a pic, but all you need to do is measure your food , that's a little over 1/4 a cup of food. portion test: if it doesn't look like a lot of food, then it's the right size meal! lol

Stick a 1/4 cup measuring cup on your counter and don't eat more than what fits in there at a time.
