Am I Drinking To Fast? Sleeved 4/9



Recommended Posts

I am having no problem getting my Water and Protein in. I can finish my Soup or hot cocoa (8oz) in twenty minutes. Am I drinking to fast? I'm not having any throat or stomach problems. Should I be worried?

Hi there! April 9 for me too and I'm the same! I have no issues. I get all my fluids in no problem. Each one takes me some time but I'm basically drinking all day. I was wondering the same thing. I have gurgling but no pain.

I have never had any problems (well the first day or two in the hospital :) ) getting my fluids in. Some do and some don't.

I was sleeved on 3/22. My experience with liquids is similar to yours. I too wondered if I might be drinking too quickly. That was until, I did drink too much too fast. Mr. sleeve definitely let me know with pain and burping. My conclusion was that if the sleeve doesn't complain its no too quickly. Just to be sure I intend to ask my surgeon when I see him this week for my one month follow up.

Listen to your sleeve, it is going to tell you what you can and cannot tolerate. I would drink as much as you can without significant discomfort. Pace yourself. Staying hydrated at this point is a daylong task.
