Perhaps she thinks that what she is eating today is the same as before surgery, but is mistaken about the reality of how much she was eating before... Was she keeping off the weight or gaining?

She said right now she was at a stand still.................. I just can't imagine how that would be humanly possible.

OHHHH NOOOOOO! That is my fear :( ...I pray I NEVER go BACK to the way I ate :(

What size of bougie did she have? Maybe it was larger and more of the stretchy part of her stomach was left behind. Ergo it stretched out. That is the only thing I can think of!

It's hard to say what she may be doing but another possibility is that she is drinking while she eats and everything is sliding through and not filling her up.

But I thought is you eat and drink at the same time it gives you problems?

I was a volume eater. There is no way I could go back. My mom on the other hand is a grazer. She eats much less in a sitting. Maybe she wasn't a volume eater.
