I agree with Full House Mom ... A LOT of us ( maybe MOST of us .. though most do it quietly ) go a little NUTZ 
when going through the high from excess food - withdrawals immediately post op .
Don't WORRY ( try to be ) happy ! Congratulations on your successful surgery !
Big hugs and best wishes for the tough days ahead . My advice is get a 1/4 cup measurer and fit your meals into that . That will lessen a LOT of the discomfort and mental questioning . It will also help your pouch and stoma heal nice and small. For the next eight weeks , your pouch and stoma are healing. Stretch em out now .. don't expect to reach your WLS goal .
