newlifeb 1 Posted January 14, 2015 16 days post op and I feel like I'm not sipping Water I can take normal drinks without any discomfort. In y'all's experience am I hurting my new stomach? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkinnyLaRodgers15 5 Posted January 14, 2015 I was wondering the same thing?! I'm 15 days post op and drink normally. Probably have since 3 or 4 days post op. Good question, sine I worry that I've stretched something. (Lapband w/plication) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildGoose 207 Posted January 15, 2015 Right after surgery, your throat is very swollen. It makes it very hard to eat and swallow Water. As time passes, this does get easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BearerOfLight 9 Posted January 15, 2015 I also worry about the same thing. I am 1 month post op and can drink normal as well as eat normal, just smaller portions. I am even able to drink a little when eating. Have I already stretched my pouch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
