Four Weeks (Almost!)

It’s been almost four weeks since surgery. I had a question/concern. I seem to be chugging Water. I am definitely getting in my liquids but find myself thirsty all of the time and take large sips. I have been trying not to do that, but I am just so thirsty!

Also, I am hungry. I can definitely eat more than the 4 tablespoons of food I should be, per the nutritionist. I am not eating a lot, but probably a cup of food at the most when I eat. I am only eating Breakfast, lunch and dinner. I am not snacking in between meals. According to my home scale I am down 25 pounds which is great! I have been keeping track of my food.

I am just nervous that I am eating/drinking more than I should. I have a follow up on the 22nd of October where I should get a fill.

Anyone else having a similar experience?

I'm not sure where your doctor's office got the 4 tablespoons of food business. I was always told to Measure 3 ounces of solid protein and some vegetables after that. Also there's nothing wrong with chugging water I do that all the time. As long as you're not doing that within an hour of eating.
