    Are the 4 teaspoons the amount your plan has stated to eat, or is that all that you can fit?

  • Don’t be afraid to accelerate a stage if you’re physically (&mentally ready). It’s ok to do this just as it’s ok if you want to slow down your steps. Just don’t go crazy. It all comes down to wha

Don’t be afraid to accelerate a stage if you’re physically (&mentally ready). It’s ok to do this just as it’s ok if you want to slow down your steps. Just don’t go crazy. It all comes down to what you (your tummy) are able to tolerate.

You may be ready to move forward especially if you’re pretty active. Try another spoonful & see how you go.

That doesn't sound like enough food. I have about 3 oz of chicken and 1/2 cup of veggies for dinner and losing consistently.

That sounds like that would be a wonderful amount of food. No my surgeon told me 4 teaspoons per meal and then at 4 months I can go to 1/4 of a cup and then increase it a fourth of a cup out until a year where one cup is the max I can take in but how that equates to ounces I'm not sure thanks for your input

Yes that is the amount of search and told me I should eat at each meal no more than that sometimes and in the early weeks it was enough but now I want more
