doesn't sound like much but in the beginning I didn't want to eat. I made myself eat and sip lots of water all day long. don't forget the water. I was worried about dehydration.

the first weeks are surreal since we eat so little, before you know it you will be on full liquids. be sure to get a good whey protein powder - it will provide lots of needed protein. plus many of them taste good!

Eat as much as you feel comfortable with, at this point you won't be gaining anything.

My nutriotionist told me to get 64 oz water minimum. And to have 3 protein shakes a day Plus to drink my snack drinks to get more protein. So I'm consuming 129 g prOtein a day. And to take my vitamins two times a day. It's a lot to take in but I don't go anywhere without my water bottle. I'm not supposed to have yogurt til the 6th. But I can have their special chicken soup which has 27 g protein by new direction.

I don't neccesarily think you are eating to much; though my question is when are you allowed to move to mushies? I was not allowed to have yoghurt until my 4 th week.

I just started week three and I am allowed to have soft food as tolerated. I have had no problems with anything I have tried including scrambled eggs, greek yogurt, soups, oatmeal, and cream of wheat. I do notice that my appetite is coming back with a vengence now that I am eating real food. I don't get my first fill until Feb 1 and I lost 14 pounds the first two weeks of my band and now gained back 2 pounds since I started eating.

I get purred food starting the 6th and then a week after that soft foods and then on 4th week I get solids.
