To Those Who Have Started The Mushy Stage

[speck 1]

How much can you eat at one feeding? I ate 1/2 cup of yogurt yesterday and that was good. But today I ate about a cup of egg drop Soup.(strained)

Then I was still a little hungry but just held off.

I was banded on September 5th and am on soft foods. I started to eat more on mushy - 1 cup, but could eat more. I am now on soft and can eat more than 1 cup. I am trying to watch it. I was told that once I get fills, I won't be able to eat this much. Don't get frustrated. Best of luck.

I am one the end side of mushy food, but I am the same way. I am only allowed three 4 oz. meals a day. It is a head battle, because I am still hungry after 4 oz. of food. I know that after I wait my 30 mins. after a meal I try to drink a low cal./no cal. juice or drink or even coffee with skim milk. That seems to help me feel a little bit more full. I am just trying to hold off until my first fill, which is Wednesday. Everyone says that after that fill I won't be hungry like I am now. That 4 oz. will make me full. I can't wait for Wednesday!:embaressed_smile:
