I'm 8 months post op. Now I have absolutely no problems drinking and I can eat quite a bit more then I could in the beginning. At two weeks I didn't have problems drinking either. At this point the swelling in your stomach is going down and liquids pass through quite a bit easier than food. I was able to drink a whole Protein Shake at two weeks out too. I have lost 115 lbs in 8 months. I don't think I would be too concerned if I were you. Once you start eating food, you will see just how little you can actually consume.

welcome Newbie

you have a new healing tummy.

i doubt you were able to chug the slim fast down 1,2, 3. you drank slowly i'm sure. per NUT at a later time you will be able to gulp

many newbies have trouble drinking at this early stage. glad you have no problems - no problem with what you drank - great to get in as many fluids as possible towards 64 oz

here is a drink to your health - cheers :)

Just remember, what works today may not work tomorrow... Your tummy is still healing and I found I could eat something one day but the very next day it wouldn't agree with me so be easy... No rush. Take your time....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
