post surgery planning
Good Evening All,
Had surgery on the 22nd and am looking forward to the post-puree life. Been thinking about talking with a nutritionist/dietician who is familiar with post-bariatric surgery patients. Also, am realizing that part of the issue is going to be what the eye considers to be an adequate portion v. what the new downsized stomach thinks. Not real sure where to go with that one.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Philip,
I had surgery in May. I have lost a total of 91 pounds so far. What I did for portion control was eat on a saucer and i still do to this day. Otherwise i feel my plate up too much and thinking that that is not enough food. I also only eat 1-2 ounces to start off with and now i can eat up to 3-4 ounces.
Hope this helps.
Marti
