Can you chug down water?



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 weeks post-op today and I've often wondered about this as I'm a former Water chugger. I'm too scared to push the envelope now so I've slowly worked up from little sips to normal swigs. I almost do want to try chugging just to see what it feels like. After 2 weeks on a liquid diet I've yet to feel any restriction or indication that I have the band. I'm sure that will change once I move on to real food or have my 1st fill.

I am not able to chug. If I drink anything that is cold, it hurts. If I drink to fast, it hurts. If I drink to much at one time, it hurts.

I tested the waters first (no pun intended) before I started guzzling down Water post-op, but I've found I can chug-a-lug with the best of them still. This is great news for me because I've never been a water sipper!

I am only close to 2 weeks post-op so I don't know how far I can push it. I am NOT a sipper so it is hard. Sometimes I gulp and then spit it back into the cup out of total fear...lol...I love Water and wants lots of it!

I have a small fill. It depends on the day as to whether or not I can chug. Today yes, yesterday no way came right back up. I try it slow at first and then gage how it feels.

I don't mean while eating. I mean when you are really thirsty and you take a bottle of Water and just chug it down.

You bet! Not ice cold Water, but room temp-out-of-the-tap water.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
