How long do you wait to drink after eating?



Recommended Posts

I try to do 15 min either side but sometimes life just doesn't work out that way. That, or I get really thirsty and take a little sip after a meal.

<p>I drink up until I eat, but find I don't want to drink again until an hour afterwards. It just feels gross most of the time and eating/drinking at the same time is unpleasant. Soup isn't fun anymore either (have to drink the liquid first then eat the solids). I would have thought this would be gone by now (6 1/2 months out), but it's not. Oh well, maybe that's a good thing.</p>

That should go away. I don't have a problem eating soup (liquid and contents together).

I find that I have to set the timer on my phone to show when it's ok to eat or drink again.

I don't really worry about if I drank before I eat, but I wait 30 minutes (approximately) after I eat to drink. If I am super thirsty I will take a couple sips, but otherwise wait 30 minutes after eating.

Same here as most I stop 15 minutes before and wait 30 minutes after. 2 hours is a loooong time :) Kooto's to you woman for waiting or trying to wait! :)

I can drink up until the time I start eating and nothing for 30 minutes afterwards. Doctor's orders, I've been doing this for almost four years.
