I got a sleeve of one ounce medicine cups when I left the hospital and I may have had to ask for them. You can also get them at a medical supply store. Also two tablespoons equals one ounce.

Tupperware. Tupperware makes a wonderful set of 4 - one ounce cups with lids. I purchased mine at an open air market last weekend for $4.99. Not sure how much they are through Tupperware. Good Luck.

Craft stores also carry them for kids projects. Instead of those, I bought a set of four tupperware containers that are 4oz each (? or smaller). Early on I filled them to a 1oz portion and I could take them to work for lunch. Best wishes -

If you have a set of measuring cups, 1 oz is half of a 1/4 cup. Many (all?) protein powder canisters include a scoop that is that size.

Hi, I got mine at Gordon Food Service; it's kind of like a restaurant supplier. I'm here in Indiana so I don't know if you have GFS in Texas. I bought a package of 250 one-ounce cups and also 250 two-ounce cups. I was also able to buy lids for them, which makes it great for bringing my lunch to work with me, and I put my meals in my 2 oz. cups so I make sure not to overeat. Good luck!

I went to Walmart and got a 4oz. measuring glass (it looks like a shot glass). It measures from 1oz. to 4oz. which is nice because as you progress from liquids to solids you go up in ounces.

a half of 1/4 cup is 1/8 of a cup. You can buy 1/8 measuring cups in the kitchen gadget aisle at the grocery stores. I have several in different coffee cannisters.

Hi Tom my Nutritionist gave me an excellent idea for measuring 1 oz of food and an excellent way to store pureed food post-op. She said to use Ice Cube trays becuase each compartment is 1 oz. She said if you want to store food just freeze it in the ice cube tray w/ a freezer bag and once frozen put it another freezer bag to store it. Then if you need lets say 3 oz of protein u take out 3 cubes and microwave it and voila meal is done. Hee Hee Hee. Pre-Op 238 Lap Band Dr Geiss NY...
