Can I eat too much?
For breakfast I ate a hard boiled egg and two pieces of soy "sausage" patties. I waited a bit, didn't feel satisfied and ate a piece of whole grain toast w/ cream cheese on it. I am 8 months RNY post op. I NEVER feel full now. EEK!!! So, do you think I can eat too much or is this a normal amount of food for this point in my journey?
When, at 10 months post op I noticed that I needed to eat ore to get the same "full" sensation - I did the %DPT test (google that). I was hungry during the test, but managed.
The sensation returned. I still have days that i want to eat, eat - but most days I am fine after 1 cup of food, and feel full for a while after that.
now - if I notice that I need to eat more- i stop and chose one day that I just do mostly liquids - and my pouch "bounces back". most people do not recommend that - but it works for me.
