PeacockMama 119 Posted March 23, 2013 Everything else was making me gag! I couldn't stand any more yogurt or Protein Shakes. I had to have something different, besides Soup. Ugh. But yeah I can go to "soft" diet Monday so I figured a scrambled egg wouldn't hurt me this close to that time. And soft foods include fish and chicken and Pasta (chewed very well)...so I rlly don't think an egg will do any damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missmeow 156 Posted March 23, 2013 I drink more than an ounce of liquid (water/tea) in 20 minutes and was sleeved 3/18. Now you have me worried I'm doing it wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tankerzwife 9 Posted March 23, 2013 I drink more than an ounce of liquid (water/tea) in 20 minutes and was sleeved 3/18. Now you have me worried I'm doing it wrong. I was sleeved 3/20 and can drink one to two oz of liquid in 20 mins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacockMama 119 Posted March 23, 2013 Missmeow me too! I can drink a fair amount at one time. Maybe an ounce and a half or 2 ounces every 10 or 15 mins. I don't do that ALL day. But I can drink a few swallows with no pain or any negative feelings. Should I not do it even though im having no problems? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I can drink a few swallows with no pain or any negative feelings. Should I not do it even though im having no problems? Mine says frim my nut. I should be drinking 60-120 ccs per hour. 1/4 to 1/2 cup approximately. 50-60 grams Protein 48-64 Fluid oz daily. Starting 2-3 days post op and lasting for 10-14 days of course each surgeon os different buy this is what is recommended by my surgeon and nut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missmeow 156 Posted March 23, 2013 I guess I need to measure/track better because it seems I can drink a bit faster than that. That could just be in my mind. I kind of lose interest when drinking my Protein Drinks. I have not had any pain except at first at the hernia site and later when I forgot and drank a normal drink (not a gulp). It was fleeting but i Didn't do that again. Otherwise I kind of feel it slide right through? My surgeon did not give any rules just said to drink slow and get fluids in. My nut has 80g Protein and 64oz combined fluids. I haven't quite gotten to the protein goal yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeacockMama 119 Posted March 23, 2013 Missmeow im exactly the same way. Not meeting Protein goals yet. I know I will when I can actually eat some meat. The sweetness is killing me right now (the shakes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
