Hi everyone ! Im 1 month post op and i was wondering how much are we supposed to eat ? On my doctors notes it says to not exceed 1 cup ( 8 oz ) at a meal and if tolerate to have a salad. Does that sound about right ? I know gastric bypass abd the sleeve are different but someone told me that on the sleeve the can only have 1/4 cup and another said 4.5 ounces. So im worried and i feel like i might be having more than im supposed to. But it says clearly on my papers 1 cup. So i just want to see what everyone elses doctors told them.

At one month i was barley eating 2-3 oz full liquids plus eggs and soft Beans. I'm three months out and just started salads, which I keep to a minimal

I'm 7 weeks out and can only get in 2 oz per meal (I try to eat 4 meals a day). If I eat more than that, I'll be curled up in my bed in a fetal position calling for my mama!!!! In other words, I would be sick to my stomach until I was able to throw up.

Just yesterday i had 1 cup meal and my stomach was throbbing :-( so i have to definetly cut it down but im at that stage still where i dont feel full or hungry so idk

really? I can eat 6 oz no problem..im 5 weeks out....what kind of food are we talking about? I was told no salad for 6 months, but i see alot of people on here eating it alot sooner than that..

I am 3 weeks out and still on purée. I started to eat 4oz per meal this week and it goes down fine (knock on wood). I am nervous because I haven't felt the full feeling yet and I am scared to. I worry that I can tolerate too much because many people say they can only do 2oz at my stage. My paperwork says to do 4oz meals 3 times a day even when I'm on regular food. I hope it's enough for me. I don't know but I'm thinking 8oz is too much. The other thing my paperwork says is not to exceed 8oz of liquid per hour. Maybe that's what they mean for you!

I was allowed salad at 6 or 7 weeks. It was heaven. I'm almost 7 months and 6-8 ounces is it for me, depending on what I'm eating of course. I can eat salad by the bucket but once chewed a huge salad is just a tiny bit, I can probably do 3-4 ounces of solid Protein in one setting plus a few bites of whatever is with it.

On my paperwork it says not to exceed 1 cup for each meal and to eat salad after a meal if tolerated. I went to see my nutritionist about a week and a half ago and she said i couldnt have raw vegtables for maybe another 2-3 weeks but on the paperwork my doctor gave me it says i can have lettuce and tomatoes. I just had 6 ounces to eat tonight and my stomach was still throbbing alittle but not as bad yesterdays 8ounces.
