Question:
I am 21 days post op lap rny and I can drimk a whole 8 oz protien shake in
about 10 min should Ibe able to drink this much this fast. I can also drink water pretty normally when I see that everyone else is having to sip what is wrong now. — Amy P. (posted on October 24, 2002)

If it's watery thin, it's probably fine. Thin brand made with water? If
so, your oz is going in and out in a minute and that's not a bad flow. Do
you feel satisfied & comfortably full when you're done?

I am 8 days post op and find myself guzzling the water down by straw; I
can't do this though by glass, has to be by straw or with bottle water. I
am already drinking my 68 oz. of water without any hurting or choking, what
so ever. Hmmm.. sounds strange to even me, but I have been fortunate
throughout my surgery and healing. Good luck to you!

Liquids go thru so much easier than solids or 'soft' foods. Think of it
this way. pour water thru a straw and then try to stuff mashed potatos
thru it. which is gonna come out easier. I was never restricted with my
drinking. I have always been able to drink like a preop.

Amy,
I have found it amazing that my "2 ounce" pouch can hold a lot of
fluid too. I'm glad to hear that it's not just me. I was beginning to
wonder if I really had the surgery. Then I eat something!
