Liquids won't trigger your restriction at all...I never felt mine until I was eating dense proteins like chicken and beef.

Sleeved 4/12. I wondered the same thing. The only way I know I'm full, is nothing else fits. It kinda sucks really because by the time that happens I'm spitting up like a baby. I've done out twice. I haven't experienced the chest pain thing yet, but I imagine that's later when we actually eat something.



I don't aim for "full." I aim for specific calories/carb/protein counts within each of my 7 daily meals that will add up to my set limits for the day (1200 calories/20 grams of carbs/100-120 grams of protein). I took this approach this even back in the early days post-op. The most I will eat at one time now is about 3 ounces of chicken with 1 ounce of green beans. I would suppose that my capacity is something like 6 ounces maybe, but I don't know, and I don't really need to know since I won't each that much at once anyway.

This is awesome advice, but I can't even get my requirements in yet. So you have any counting tips so it doesn't feel like such a chore?
