i ask the same question, even though your dr said your pouch is the size of an egg 2oz, do you all find you can eat more than that when it comes to certain foods? and i walk around with a water bottle, i am use to drinking 3 gallons a Water a day so 64 oz is killing me... the only pain i have in just muscle pain from my incisions and the fact the past 2 nights i have been so fatigued i fell going up the stairs.. so i may just start sleeping down stairs after my husbands leaves TDY. I do hope everyone is well and happy and your families are handling your recovery well and treating y'all great..

Has anyone tried a small sip after eating? I want just a small piece of ice or something but am scared to death! If we eat three meals and it takes the minimum of 30 minutes to eat and we can't eat 30 minutes before or after' date=' that's 4.5 hours a day we can't drink. I already don't get enough fluid! This isn't working!!!

Hi Jess I told my nut I have very large tonsils and there's no way I can't sip Water due to that. She said its ok if I really need it she just doesn't want me to do it constantly reason being I'll flush all my food out of my pouch quickly and cause dumping. But a lil tiny sips shouldn't hurt I do sip a lil and luckily no dumping yet ( fingers crossed)

Your doing awesome... I am scared to even go to my one month. I.e. want big numbers like 30 lBs, but I know that won't happen and it makes me so upset.

My doctor told me this would happen. It's our bodies getting used to our new ways but we will eventually start losing again.
