Ok. I am 4 weeks post op as of two days ago. The day of my surgery I weighed 311. Today I weighed 295. That's 16 pounds in 32 days. Is that average? Also I have been 295 for 2 weeks now. I'm stuck. Will this pick up. One more ? before I go, sometimes I can only eat 4 ounces and I'm stuffed and other times I can eat way more...is this also normal?

    Also, I will throw in that 4 ounces = half cup is only true for liquid and mostly liquid things. There is no way that 4 ounces of chicken would fit in half a cup, or 4 ounces of broccoli. That's why,

i didn't get hungry at first but now at a year out i do get hungry - it isn't the same kind of hungry that i used to get and it is satisfied a lot quicker - usually after just a few bites - so it important to only eat what you can actually hold and listen to your body. I think that you can choose what you want to eat since you are an adult but remember that those choices will impact your weight loss - so if you eat grits instead of a small portion of high Protein it could slow the weight loss process - I'm no doctor and i don't even play one on TV but that is just my own opinion. Good luck! :D You can do this!!
