PLEASE give me idea's of how much you can eat post-op/2weeks

Yes Guys, it's me again. I would love to know the following about you and your experiences. 1)how much you were able to eat/drink at 2wks post op? 2)did you start feeling full once you went on to more solid foods? 3)what's your favorite protein shake recipe ****As ususal I'm worried I'm eating too much and not feeling full and I want to get a grip on it before it's too late. I've seen people post that they get full with 3-4 sips of water/crystal lite...not me, I could drink much more quickly than I do but I make myself stop. I'm eating 2-3 cans of lowfat cans of soup(160 cal a can) a day and the VERY bad thing is that I eat my soup in 15-30 minutes. I KNow you are saying then I shouldn't be eating that much but I HONESTLY do feel hungry when I eat. I'm working on distinguishing head hunger from tummy hunger. My DR told me to add scrambled egg and grits to my diet and I'm terrified to do so in fear of not getting that full feeling that I should get when starting to eat more solid foods. Thank you guys for all your help and your patience too lol Josii*
