Snack Pak

Is it normal at 1wk out to be able to eat a whole sf snack pak cup?? Praying so... Thanks, its the small things that get me.

hmmm, what is a snack pak cup?  Is it pudding, cottage chesse, ummm, snack pack of doritos??

I'm sorry it is a pudding cup. Snack pak is the brand.

 Pudding is a slider food. I bet you can't eat the same amount of chicken or fish.

At one week I was drinking 2 protein shakes each day with 8 oz of milk, eating broth with a scoop of unflavored protein, eating one jello cup, and one pudding cup all day. Oh and drinking water.

 I would look to what your plan says.  With the sensation of fullness not really being present so early out, you can eat a lot more then you should.  It's why it's good to measure.  I think at that stage I was eating 1/2 a snack pack cup at a time.

At that stage, I was eating two one-ounce cups of food per meal in addition to drinking my shakes.  I bought small plastic condiment cups from Gordon's Food Service and used those to measure and serve my food.  My typical day was:

Breakfast:  1 oz runny oatmeal/cream o'wheat and 1 oz. greek yogurt
Lunch:  1 oz cream of chicken soup (strained) and 1 oz V8 juice
Dinner:  1 oz cream of mushroom soup (strained) and 1 oz apple juice

Eventhough pudding is a slider food, the sensation of being full isn't the same as it was pre-op.  Stick to your doc's plan and be sure to measure everything before you eat it.  I'm guessing that pudding cup is at least 4 oz. 

 I was able to eat a whole SF Jello pudding cup at 5 days post op.  I am not able to eat a whole 2 oz of fish starting my  4th week.
