AS LONG AS IT ISN'T SUGARS, FATS OR PROCESSED CARBS. I'm cleared to eat what I want. He said he still cannot believe that at 10 days out I was able to eat 4oz of air fried salmon. He said that beef jerky usually is hard to handle at 2 months. I have been snacking on beef jerky and peanuts since around 15 days out. I was 225 fully dressed with my jacket, knife, smartphone, change, and wallet when I was weighed. The Nurse said; there was no need to remove anything since she couldn't believe the difference since my surgery. My surgeon asked about how I'm doing with my meds, proteins and fluids, I told him all's good. He looked at my incisions and said I'm healing really fast. So he cleared me to eat my way because it's working. I have my next appointment on February 24th.

Anyone else LOVING the tension building here between Steve and Mikey? I am proposing a steel cage match for them to settle their differences.

But in more serious matter 6oz of Chili at 3 weeks sounds like a ton of food. That's roughly what I have now at 9 months and would be quite filling.

I wasn't trying to be argumentative I was just trying to say what is working for my surgeon and I. I don't want to drop weight to fast and make my immune system drop with it. When I was in the Navy bootcamp I lost weight so fast I was getting sick constantly. I rather loose a little slower. I'm not planning on increasing the oz of food from where I currently am now. As I said; everyone is different and has different goals.
