What sort of weird sensation? When I drink I feel like my top incisions in the center of my stomach pull.

A pull or twitch maybe I'm suppose to advance to 3oz I backed down to 2. 3 was to much.

Do you think it's normal or is it pain that shouldn't be?

[mrs.katie 27]

I think it's normal. I just had my guts rerouted last week so things are going to feel off for a bit.

I can't do 2 oz at a time. When was your surgery?

Thanks Mrs Katie, for listening ;()

Mine was Thursday too. Right now I can hold 2 oz. of liquids or 1.5 oz. of pudding or Jello.

I can't imagine trying to push for 3 oz. at this point. I usually drink 4 oz. over an hour or drink 2 and eat 1.5.

Wow you are eating I'm only having liquids with 9 oz of Protein Drink throughout the day

[steph-rny 9]

For my post op diet I'm allowed 6-8 servings Protein shake per day, each is 120ml over 2 hrs, filling in the time with crystal lite, Jello, broth, tea, coffee. On Sept 4 I can ask about adding soft foods.

I didn't feel any weird sensation but I felt full so quickly.

My pouch definitely could not handle that amount four days post-op. I'm struggling with 2-3oz now per hour BUT everyone is different! I get chest pains and feel like I can't take a deep breath if I drink to much.

I feel full so quickly also, I think my pouch is still swollen and tender from the surgery!
