Bariatric sleeve surgery

I had Bariatic sleeve surgery and I’m supposed to keep a food diary and it is hard to find my servicing sizes on here. Is there a way to In our that. Because I can only eat about 3 to 4 tablespoons of food right now and I choose this app because it links to my scale I purchased

    I had sleeve surgery - like the previous poster said, try measuring in ounces. One ounce =2 tablespoons usually, so you can measure and log based on that.

    Hello. I am one week post op after a sleeve surgery. Did anyone else feel like they can’t get in enough protein or hydration.

    That's fairly normal at one week post op. I am 11 months post-op now and get 80oz+ in liquid daily (I'll be at 112 today) , plus 100g + of protein.
