I haven't had oatmeal post op at all but just ate an entire packet of oatmeal...and feel...satisfied. not even stuffed. I know..just because I can doesn't mean I should..but is this amount totally atypical? Should I be worried?

I have done the same.  I find the looser or "more watery" the food is, the more I can eat.
When I eat dense food, ie hard boiled eggs, I feel the restriction.  I
think you are normal.  I found that one packet of Apple-Cinnamon oatmeal was very
satisfying when I craved something sweet, but different..

That's exactly what I had and it was pretty tasty! Do you feel full after one hard boiled egg? I've started to do one entire egg and an egg white...not sure if I'm doing too much and I already stretched it out...

THanks for your input!

Before surgery I ate two packets of instant oatmeal every morning for breakfast. Gave that up for a while after surgery but recenlty I have started eating one packet in the morning again. I find it helps to regulate my digestion.
