I'm 3 years out of sleeve, never got to goal gained 20. Back to the basics and just wanted to check in with other sleevers,...

How much food can you consume in one setting,, wonder if I am eating too much. Last night I was able to eat 3oz of chicken, and 1/4 cup of green beans. too much?

Seems good to me. I keep my meals between 4-6 ounces, depending on what I'm eating.

I'm 14 months out and I'm eating 3oz of dense protein + 1oz of veggie or 3oz of dense protein + 1oz of cheese.

Tonight I had 3oz of scallops and 1oz of Brussel Sprouts (which turned out to be two halves, lol).

I'm a little over 4 mnths out and can eat 2-3 oz of chicken and approx 1 oz of veg. However where my troubles come in are the sliders. I have to be careful with the cheese snacks, cottage cheese, and yogurts. I tolerate them a little too well!! Sounds like you still have good restriction.

You've still got fantastic restriction.

I'm 12 years out and you wouldn't even know I had any wls at all. I eat on the light side of the normal eater. when dining out, I can do a 6oz steak, salad and half of a potato.
