Am I measuring my food properly?

16 weeks out, and I'm still not sure if I'm doing this right. I really want this surgery to work for me, but I'm not sure if I'm measuring things properly. Seems like I can still eat..I'm not forcing anything, I'm losing, but why do I feel like I'm "wide open" as far as my pouch is concerned? I want to go back to eating 2-3 ozs. like in the beginning, and not actually drink anymore than 6-8 ozs of water at a time...does that make sence to any of you? I don't want to embarrass myself any more than I have. I just think I may be obsessed with losing this weight that I'm writing down EVERYTHING I eat and drink. I feel so much more energetic...I don't want it to end. Should I purchase baby utensils? What is a *staple line disruption* in a LAP RNY? I can eat a whole bag of popcorn and not feel sick, should I? What am I doing wrong? I couldn't stand it if this surgery failed me...I've come so far already...
