Oatmeal amount

[somaiswhat 29]

This look about right for stage 2? I don't finish it all..oatmeal and baby food

I think if you eat it slow you will feel when you are full. And probably won't be able to eat the full amount. But that is ok, Slow and chew well even though you think it is all mush still chew and at the first feel of full stop. Looks pretty good to me.

Thank u! Feel like I'm doing everything wrong

[Vicki Loichinger 444]

Trust me we all feel like that a lot of days. And it is always easier to tell someone how to do it then always do it. But I try hard. You will do fine. Just follow the rules your doc and nut gave/give you and do your very best.

Wishing you the best.

I am 12 days post-op and sitting here eating a bowl right now! It's specifically on my mushy list! They do say not to use instant but I this is the third or fourth time I've had it without issue....only eating about 1/4 cup though, I'm still early in this!

I am on a 1/4 cup serving size until 3 mo post op..so you are probably about right with the amount you are eating.

Oops....third or fourth time I've had oatmeal....I don't use the instant because they said it was more likely to cause dumping....so far no problem on the kind you cook for a few minutes.

I am 5 months out too and eat it from time to time. It works well.for me. No dumping no matter the flavor.
