Usually 2.5 is cool. I ate 3oz. the other night and was uncomfortably full.

Definitely depends on how dense it is. Ground beef? I can easily eat 4 oz. now (14 months post-op) no problem. Chicken breast? Still probably can't even manage 3 oz.

I should have mentioned it was 3oz. of chicken breast that got to me.

I am at 7 months out and I still have 2 oz of Protein like chicken breast, steak or pork with 1 oz of fruit and 1 oz of veggie.

If I eat cottage cheese or yogurt, I can usually do more - like 4-5 oz of protein.

I'm 9 weeks post op and can manage 3oz of fish but only 1 1/2 of chicken.
