Question is it strange that....

I can STILL only eat about 2 ozs of food???? im not worried like i cant sleep at night over it, but i seriously thought by now i would be up to a cup. no matter what soft moist, meat, "other" i cant get more than 3 ozs in. i can DRINK about 6 ozs and by then i feel like i'm about to bust. what gives?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Mabye its the way your Doc designed your pouch? That is all I can think of. I know for me i can take in more liquid than anything else. This is somthing you might have to get your calories in when you want to level off with. Im sure Doc might have a better anwswer for you honey. And remember to EAT today !

im eating. just not much. i think thats why sometimes i dont even bother. i know its bad but why buy food if all i can eat is about 4 bites??? i wonder if im doing something wrong. maybe i need to eat more to stretch it??
yeah im thinking when i do want to level off i will have to take in calories via shake or something....because i dont see myself eating more anytime soon. i have a lot to think about. goal weight is right around the corner

See now I know when its time to eat. I have never seen this part posted but for me my pouch seems flat? Its not that Im hungry I cant say that but it feels flat telling me its empty and needs somthing in it. I drank alot when i was on just clear fluids in the hosptial. Mabye that had alot to do with it.

i dont ever feel "empty" thats the thing i guess...i know its not a "hunger" per se, but im ALWAYS full. always. i think a handful of times i thought i was hungry but i drank something because i was thirsty too and we cant do both at the same time (lol) and it went away. i dunno. i just hope i dont shrivel up and disappear because i wont be able to maintain at any level if i cant eat more...i would think.

You know what........ It seems like yesterday you come in here fresh and new and just had your surgery and look at you ! 19 lbs from goal. You have done sooooo well. Im proud of you girly. Do you count calories? I dont. I still have a whole other person to lose of my self. At some point which is odd i know, you will have to make sure you eat enough ! WOW what a big change eh?

Thanks msvickie it all happend so fast.
i dont count calories at all. my nut told me theres no sense in going crazy over all of that until i get to maintenance and beyond. which im cool with. i cannot fathom writing down and adding up all day long LOL! im lazy i know. and thats bad.

its a HUGE change. before you know it you will be there. you are melting away alredy. 52 lbs is nothing to sniff at. it took me MONTHS to get there. you are doing FABULOUS. one day it will hit you like a ton of bricks. it JUST hit me the other day. i was folding laundry and i thought WOW all of my clothes are so small. and they are getting loose again i'm gonna blow away in the wind this winter for sure....

Kenya - I guess this is why they push good "fuel" - protein and such. I dont know if you would eat cottage cheese or not but I have this recipe that I can eat a good bit of and it has a nice amount of protein in it. Note: I dont eat cottage cheese, but I do like this. I use 1 SF jello (orange and lime are best with this recipe), 1/2 can fat free evap milk and 8-12 oz cottage cheese (ff, I prefer small curd). mix jello with 1 c hot water to dissolve, add milk, stir, add cot chs, stir and refrigerate. You can also add nuts (like pecans) and crushed pineapple w/o juice if you want. I just do the basic recipe. That's a good way to get calcium and protein and it tastes like a dessert. You know how we wonder if we will be able to maintain our weightloss? I may wish my pouch was smaller someday. I was worried yesterday I had eaten too much, I will be more vigilant today about the amount I put in pouchy! sorry for the rambling....
