You were unable to drink as much in the first few days due to swelling. It's normal that you can consume more now that you are a week out.

With each passing week, and month, you will be able to consume more food/liquids. At a year out, I can consume double the amounts I could at 2-3 months post-op. It's what happens as the swelling decreases, and our stomachs adjust to food being put in there. You aren't stretching your stomach.
