It depends on what I eat whether or not if I can eat more or less.

Wendy's: I ordered a 5 piece nugget and a broccoli and cheese baked potato' date=' ate 4 nuggets and a few small bites of the baked potato.

Taco Bell: Ordered a chicken burrito with just chicken and cheese, I only ate the chicken and cheese and give the soft shell to my dog.

McDonald's: Ordered a snack wrap and was able to eat the whole one.

Fish: I can eat 1 whole piece of a medium sized filet (3-4oz) I used to eat 2 large filets

Shrimp: 4-5 medium shrimp and 4 jumbo shrimp, I used to eat more than I could ever count...

Veggies: Depending on the Protein weight on my plate, I'll adjust the weight of the veggies so everything balances out to 4-6 oz. I use a saucer to eat off of.

Yogurt: 6oz

Chicken: 1/4 of a large breast (2oz) I used to eat 2 large breast in one sitting...smh

Ground turkey: 3 oz

Protein Bars that I eat are 2.4 oz.

oatmeal, grits, and cream of wheat starting out I could only eat half of the instant pack, now I can eat the pack of it. One serving is 1/2 cup. I used to eat 2 or 3 packs at a time, now I'm so glad to be satisfied with a normal portion <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

liquids right after was a struggle to get in 20 oz at a time now I drink 32 ounces three times a day and it takes me about 1 to 2 hours to drink, then wait 30 minutes and 30 to 45 minutes to eat. Once again the sleeve is awesome cause I used to inhale my food in a matter of nanoseconds <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> LOL I'll take some pics tomorrow for you as well

*edit* Forgot to say I'm 2 months post-op. 9 weeks this past Thursday.[/quote']

But most of the fast food have a lot of carbs?
