Normal Intake Two Weeks Out?

I am two weeks out from surgery and my stomach is acting very strangely. In the morning, I get up and make a scrambled egg with cheese and can't get in the last bite or two so I stop. However, tonight, I cut up half a chicken breast and chewed each tiny piece into little bits before swallowing. It took me 20 or 25 minutes to eat it, but when I was done I didn't feel full. I wasn't hungry, but I wasn't full either. Half a chicken breast seems like a lot two weeks out. How much were you eating two weeks out? I have been very careful not to stretch my stomach and am following the NUT diet religiously. I just don't know if that is normal or not.

Seems normal. I'm also two weeks out. April 9. Today was the first day of my two weeks of puréed foods. I am not allowed yet to have solids like chicken. Unless its a chicken salad puréed. I had one egg this morning and was able to finish it no problem. This afternoon I ate a few ounces of tuna salad. Felt satisfied. I would think half a chicken breast would make u feel full. Everyone is different though. Be grateful you can eat that. Some ppl can't seem to get the chicken down. :) I can't wait to try!!!
