I was wondering if anyone drinks and eats in the same time , or doesnt wait all 30 minutes ? and if they feel weird when they do this. It is summer time and I am always thirsty and find it hard not to drink a lot. I also wanted to know of anyone drinks faster than recommended , or how fast do people drink ? for the first 2 weeks i was told to drink an ounce in fifteen minutes , i am starting my fourth week of post op diet , and i cant possibly wait 15 minutes to drink. am i harming myself ?
