pre op how big the stomach is



Recommended Posts

I was reading this morning about how many ounces one would be able to eat after surgery and I began to wonder how many ounces I can have before my surgery. Sooooo, I took my glass of milk and measured it , then drank it. I did this twice and became full. It was 64 ounces, that's 4 cups. Has anyone else tried this? No wonder Im hungry all the time.

I can't be sure, but I think mine was about as big as a 50 gallon drum. I could eat A L-O-T.biggrin.gif

Seriously, that is interesting and I never tested mine out to see before surgery.

I'm a little confused. 4 cups is only 32 ounces.

I have to laugh - I always find myself thinking pound instead of cup and really have to watch myself when cooking!! 16 oz is a pound - 8 oz is a cup :lol:

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
