Yes I did not get even that much Fluid in the first few days. All I can say is just keep sipping. As you heal you will get more in. Good luck in your journey

I've found if I stand up then take a drink and walk around for a minute or so (bathroon break, empty dishwasher,etc) that gravity is my friend!

It took me about a week to be able to take 32oz, at 2 weeks out I was managing 64oz. At 8 weeks I get 64oz plus some. You WILL get there :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
