I'm 6 months out tomorrow...how much did you guys find yourself actually eating at 6 months out? Was told by the nurse that around now I should be eating 10-12oz but I am no where near that.

And my answer includes the dense protein and whatever else. Sometimes I eat 2-3oz and feel like I ate Thanksgiving dinner.

10-12 oz a day maybe lol. I dont know any vet here even 3+ years out that can sit down and eat 10-12 oz unless its ice cream.

At 6 months out, I think I was eating 3oz of dense protein w/ 1/4-1/2 cup of veggies. Pretty much eat the same now, though I could eat a little more if I wanted to.

You were told so wrong! I am 2 years out and there is no way that I could eat 10 -12 oz....that would be a days worth maybe!

I hate to be the party pooper here, but I have seen VSG patients 2-3 years out eating about that much. I can't eat that, but I have been out to dinner a couple of times with people that could. Needless to say, they were far from goal. :(

Most of us can only eat 2-3 ounces of dense protein at six months out and maybe a few bites of veggies.

I am 10 months out and only can eat 3-4 oz, if I can. I think they told you daily consumption.

I'm 7 months out. I have a tight, but long sleeve (so I was told by my surgeon). I can do 3 oz protein and about a 1/4 cup of veggies on what I call an empty day. Usually I can do about 2.5 ounces of protein and the veggies. That's about it.

I could do 10 to 12 oz a day, but not in one meal.

I agree with most of the posts above. I can eat about 3oz. of dense protein max if I'm going to eat a few bites of veggies. If I wanted to just eat dense protein, I can eat about 4oz. at one time.
