How much should it take to fill me up?

I had open RNY on 3/25/02, I have lost 52 lbs. The nurse at my surgeons office said that most of their patients feel like they are going to pop when they eat 2-3 oz. I am still hungry when I eat 12 oz. I asked my Dr. if he thought that I had a staple line disruption and he said no, that I shouldn't worry about it since I am losing at a good rate. I am worried though, could my pouch be stretched, will I keep losing if I continue to eat this much? Three oz. is nothing to me! HELP!!!!!
