Just wondering how much people could drink. I don't feel pressure when I drink but don't wanna over do it. Had surgery monday

I made some chicken broth and put a scoop of unjury unflavored protein powder in it. 20 grams of protein. It tastes good. I don't get a gurgling feeling or any restrictions, but I'm taking 5 or so sips every 5 minutes. Scared to over do it

Spent 2 nights in the hospital after surgery. Day 2 was rougher than day1 but I'm already off pain Meds. Maybe when I get home ill be sore again. I confused myself on how much water I should be drinking. I have small 30 milliliter shot cup. Would 15 minutes for that b about right? That's an ounce. Any help is appreciated

Thanks everyone. Luckily I'm drinking fine. Just don't wanna over do it.

Hey there...had surgery yesterday at 10:15am. Haven't had any naseua or anything. Very little incision pain, just tightness on my tummy, not a lot of gas pain surprisingly. Walked 3 times yesterday 15 minutes each. And did a 20 minute walk already this morning. Got dressed, cleaned up and just sitting around the room. Have to stay again tonight but feel I could go today. Haven't drank or ate yet so still have to see how that goes here soon. My doctor doesn't do the swallow test, that's prolly why she keeps her patients 2 nights. Have the drain in still but can't tell its there. No problem going to the bathroom, no catheter used which was nice. Hope fellow sleevers from yesterday are doing well.

Had mine as well today. Zero incision pain, minimal gas pain so far. Up and walking around. Way better than I thought. So far so good. Just inside stomach pressure..Congrats on being on the other side..

4 hours till surgery. Wow, the range of emotions you get. Good luck to fellow 11/12 sleevers. See you on the other side

1015am tomorrow for me as well....here we go

You are on the exact one I'm on but I was allowed cream soups, strained. That was my Savior. I drank 3 protein shakes a day also and ate sugar free pudding. It hasn't been bad. I've lost 22 pounds and I'm on day 12. Good luck

Day 12 of liquids for me. Hasn't been bad. Down 22 pounds. Come on Monday morning

Thanks. I needed this, and you. My surgery is Monday. You have given me the strength to get to the finish line. Hope I can be half the man you are after surgery. Well at least close lol. 6 foot 2 360 today. Thanks for the update and wish u great success

I'm on day 11 of my liquid diet. Thankfully cream soups are allowed, that's a lifesaver. Can actually say it hasn't been bad. Have lost 16 pounds . Maybe I should liquid diet for a year and not have surgery....hmmm...big day is Monday 12th

Monday morning for me too. Best of luck. Definitely a lifestyle change. Been on liquid diet for 10 days and it hasn't been bad. Lost 16 pounds so far. Just less I have to lose after.

I'm 5 days out and ut-ohing like crazy lol

Great to hear. Continued success
