It will get better. I drink pretty darn fast these days, 11 weeks out.

Hang in there! It does get better. I am 10 weeks out, and can chug over half a glass of Water, then 5 minutes later I finish off the other half. Just make sure that you're constantly sipping whenever you're awake.

I am in the same boat that you are - It is good to see that we will be able to drink larger drinks of Water in the not so distant future.

I had my surgery a month ago. I have always been a big Water drinker. The chugging thing is a problem for me too. I never feel like a get enough water with this sipping thing. Another thing I find difficult is the not drinking while eating. My husband was always amazed at how many time I would get my water glassed filled up when we went out to eat. I too am glad to hear that I will be able to drink more with time.

Like the others have said with time you will be able to chug again. I am 7 months out and drink at least 120 oz a day, and more important to your question at times I do chug my Water. Good Luck, enjoy the journey it's not always easy but it gets better as time goes by.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
