suzjag 107 Posted August 4, 2012 It is so hard to drink slowly. I'm wondering how everyone else is fairing with this? How long do we have to drink slowly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
traceyinflorida 499 Posted August 4, 2012 I am two months out and while I cannot chug anything, I do not drink as slow as I had to when I first started. I cannot drink a Protein Shake quickly because they are filling, but I can drink 8 oz of Water in a fairly short amount of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
