Question:
On Pureed stage and try to eat only 1/4 cup, feel like I could eat more...
Was anyone eating more than this at about 3 weeks post op? — TotallyTori (posted on March 26, 2003)

Just because you feel that you *can* eat more than 1/4 cup at 3 weeks
doesn't mean that you *should* eat more than 1/4 cup. Don't push the
envelope...JR

John is right, sometimes you can feel like you can eat alot more, then can
have one more bite and feel overly stuffed. It happens alot quicker than it
used to! But also, since you are on the pureed stage, you can eat more than
what you would eat normally, say in 3 months. For instance, I could eat 6oz
of yogurt, which seemed like so much, but I couldn't eat more than an ounce
of chicken, because it is denser and solid. So if you can eat more of
pureed foods, don't feel bad- they just slip right through! Goodluck to you
