5 months post-op today!

I weighed in at 195.6 today,
for a total loss of -77 lbs, and 51 lbs since the day of surgery. I lose weight in spurts, then sit at the same weight for weeks before it drops a few again. As long as it keeps going downward! I am noticing that it is harder to fill up on 1/2 c. per meal, unless it is all very dense, like chicken breast and raw vegies. Chili and cottage cheese just slide on through, and this has had me concerned, as per my NUTs guidelines I am not to eat more that 1/2 cup total at a sitting for 4-6 small meals a day, forever! Alot of people here point out that is not their NUTs expectations, more like 3/4c to 1 c.. This has me concerned. I really like feeling full on 1/2 cup, so plan to just eat more dense foods at this time. I am averaging 750-950 calories, most days right about 850. I have been drinking 2 protein shakes these past few days to get my protein up over 100 g a day, My NUT feels 60 is enough though. But I swear, when I get over 100 g a day, that is when the weight falls off. Feeling great, and my treat for reaching 195 was to get new underware, as my old size 12 were falling off! I was able to by them in the SINGLE DIGIT size, 9!!!!! I love, love, love my RNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
