Yesterday's jelly and custard (liquid phase of post-op food)

Hi fatGreek, I was having a hard time getting my Water in until I bought little 8 oz Water bottles. For some reason the 16 oz bottles were just too daunting.

I drink one right when I get up, another on my way to work, 4 at work, waiting 30 min after I eat. My dr. said I could drink up to 5 minutes before I ate since water leaves the stomach so quickly. Then I drink at least 2 more when I get home.

I should add that I refill/use the same bottle during the day,

Does it take ages to drink the 8oz?

[royalsecret 29]

No not at all. It takes about 15 minutes.
