I had surgery 2 weeks ago and I don't feel like I have the restriction that everyone else does. I am able to eat one egg and 4 ounces of cottage cheese as a meal and probably could eat even more if I wanted to. Is this normal? The water is going down fine and I can already take much bigger sips of water. I don't get nauseous.The weird thing is the other day I had an egg and afterwards I felt like I had overate at Hometown Buffet. I am still not at the solid foods phase and thus far I have only been having protein shakes, eggs (limit one a day), and cottage cheese. Yet, I feel like I could eat more than 4 oz in one sitting and have a few times. My carbs, fat, calorie intake, and protein requirements are what they should be. I know I need to improve at SLOWING down. TMI coming: I am also on my period right now and I am craving food like crazy. I am not hungry now per se but I could eat more and there doesnt seem like there would be consequences i I did. Do you think I cannot feel the restriction as much because I am consuming things that go down easily? Will I feel it more as I heal and eat solid foods. I just hope my surgery was done right. I healed quickly and I feel ok. i just thought I would feel more restriction. Is this normal? I couldn't have stretched it out already right? It's not like I have been having big feasts. But I have eaten 6 ounces a couple o times as a meal and only waited an hour in betwn meals a few times. Have I screwed myself! Please share your knowledge and experiences with me.
