How much were you able to eat 2.5 months post op?
It surely varies person to person. I do believe surgeons today are making pouches larger than when I had surgery (for the most part). There was no way I could eat 1/2-1 cup of food at 2 months out. More like 1 OZ maybe 1 1/2 OZ at a meal.
Long-term a cup of food is what is recommended forever and it's what I usually eat now (maybe 1 1/2 cups if it's not a dense protein).
Honestly I'm somewhat concerned with how much new post-ops are able to eat at a few months out.
