A decent amount of food? The object is not to eat a lot of food and lose weight. You still have some swelling at a month out but sounds like your surgeon gave you a nice tight sleeve. It will stretch some over time but not a lot. Proteins first and your fluids.

How much are you talking aboutYou should be eating many small meals and this early out, yes bites. You don't need to worry about eating protein and a vegetable right now. When you say a piece of protein what kind of protein are you talking about?

A sleeve can hold 2-5 ozs. So measure what you are eating. Remember also proteins like beef and chicken are more dense and harder to digest this early. Go back to scrambled eggs or cheese omlets. I eat a lot of retried beans with a slice of sharp cheddar melted on it.
