Able to eat more?

When I had my sleeve, my doctor told me that my stomach would hold about 1 ounce of food. He said that later it would hold up to 4 ounces but he did not specify when later was! I was sleeved on March 27. When did everyone (or has anyone) noticed that they are able to eat just a little bit more? Thanks for the replies!

I had my sleeve two days before you(: and have noticed my stomach can hold a LITTLE more than before. But my nut said about 4 months out.

I am 5 weeks out and I can eat about half a cup of food (like black beans and chicken breast).

I'm 6 mo out & can eat about a cup at a time.

How many calories a day is average?

I am 15 months out, and yes you will be able to eat a little bit more with time. But don't sweat it, there will still be a limit as to how much you can eat at one time. Your body will definitely let you know when you eat one bite too much.
