Carrie, as you can see, everyone has their own opinion on foods. Quantity is relative and even at 9 months out, I could not eat what you listed. 1/2 cup of pasta with chicken...no way. Now saying this, I can eat a cup of food at this point, even more depending on what it is.
I agree with the fluids...so important. The idea of eating in 30 minutes and stopping if you have pain and then starting again...WHAT??? Listen to your body, if it says its in pain..STOP!
I think after your scope next week, you will feel a difference in what and quantity you can eat. You know Nohr's feelings on milk - so you choose. I do drink some milk, but not the amount listed. Also 6 meals a day is common for some patients...Nohr likes 3 meals a day and that is what I have stuck too...mostly as I was a grazing eater before and became obese....I find it much easier to stick to 3 meals a day and all others are liquid (one may be protein drink!)
Glad you went to see the dietician...just remember to listen to your own body!
