I would guess No! Just from the way I feel when I take too big a drink! :-(

I chug it per say but 9 weeks out and it feels like I can... Way different from the little sips in the beginning! I hear its different for everyone though!

I'm just jealous because I'm so thirsty right now!

We had tilapia for dinner that we bought from the butcher pre seasoned and I think it was salty :P

So I'm dying from being full and thirsty :(

Moral of this story make you own fish lazy!

I can chug down about a cup of Water now if I'm really thirsty and I haven't eaten lately. Love slurping down a few gulps. But don't rush it - tender tummies take time to heal.

Oh yes the feeling of satisfaction that comes with chugging a big glass of cold Water, or iced tea. I miss that more than anything. I try to fool myself by getting a big mouth full and swallowing a little at a time, but it still not the same, I am SO excited to think there maybe hope!

Thanks for sharing your journey.

At a year and a half out I am able to chug Water again...although it is not as much as I used to, like drinking a whole 16 oz bottle down at one time. However I am able to take several gulps of water at a time on an empty stomach. :)

Im 8wks out and i chug Water fine. Almost 8onzes or more. The difference for me now is that i cant chug anything that is cold. It feels like its stuck in my throat so i cant do it. It hurts.

I wouldn't necessarily say you will be able to chug but you will be able to take a big enough drink to quench your thirst adequately. i wouldn't attempt it until at least 3 months out.

      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.
