That sounds nice!  I didn't realise vsg people could eat things like chicken so soon post-op. Very nice! We eat a lot more quantity than you do. 

Highest 290, Banded - 248   Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006.  Regain of 28lbs 2013-14.  ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,

That sounds like a lot of food to me for being five weeks post op.  Are you tracking your calories/protein using an app like My Fitness Pal?

I am using Live Strong's My Daily Plate to log my food.  The amount of calories will be about 850 by the end of the day and 90 grams protein.

I have a band and I usually eat the following

Breakfast- greek yogurt

snack before or after lunch- apple (I like the fiber keeps me full)

Lunch- cottage cheese and 2oz of ham slices  

Dinner- Taco pizza.  torilla (the tortilla act like the pizza crust) with cheese, refried beans, lettuce, ground turkey, salsa. 

This is what I had yesterday. 

I drink only water, Crystal Lite or Tea.

Here's what I'm having today:

B- Premier Protein Shake

S- Babybell Mini Cheese

L- Chicken breast and Cheddar Cheese

S- Greek Yogurt

D- Grilled beef country ribs (spice rub) and small kale salad

That's about 650 calories according to MFP. I'm 4 months out and I'm between 600-800 calories a day.

I'm 8 weeks post VSG. Today I ate/will eat:

B - Fairlife milk and coffee (I still don't tolerate solids in the morning )

L - 3.5 turkey meatballs with 2tbsp homemade marinara.

D - chicken breast, olives, bacon and avocado with some salad dressing - my non WLS husband will have a salad, I just eat the toppings because spinach and lettuce are still a no-go.

Plus 80-90Oz water and my vitamins.
