I could chug a lug up until I got good restriction, now if I do it it causes a PB type thing.

I think you sip right after surgey b/c you are swollen and stuff, but now I have 2 fills, a decent amount of restriction, and I gag if I try to chug most drinks, but I can chug Water like you couldn't imagine. I've never had any problems drinking alot of water at a time.

I sipped in the beginning, just because I couldn't take any gulps. Now I drink as normal.

I usually can gulp down Water, however on occasion if I drink too fast I'll get all slimy. I guess my stomach pouch when overfilled with water thinks I have something stuck.

I generally don't have any problem with guzzling pretty fast, either. There were only a few short periods of high restriction where I had to sip (other than right after surgery).
