I am on day 9, and still on liquid stage til day 21, i am a bit worried I am able to drink too much, I just made a cup of Soup with bout 200-250ml (6.7oz-8.4oz) of Water and drunk it in 1/2 hour with little or no pain, my book says I should be drinking 125ml (4.2oz) every half hour... Its not with everything, but i just noticed how quick i just drunk it, I am worried and don't want to stretch my sleeve... What amount is everyone drinking at around 9 days out? Anyone else doing this?

Everyone is different. I was able to get down 64 ounces 2 weeks out. As long as you're not in pain or pressure then don't worry. Listen to your body, you'll feel the pressure. It was hard for me to understand why I was getting things down so easy but when I did push too far it hurts.

After the first week, I also had the same worries. You'll definitely feel it, if you've pushed your sleeve too far. It's great that you can get your fluids in! Good luck!

Once you start on mushies, purses,and regular food you'll feel your restriction - liquids go down easier usually. You're fine, just try not to drink too much too fast, you'll know if you do. That's one thing you can.be sure of is that your new stomach will let you know if its unhappy

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
