I don’t feel any restriction with the liquids.



Recommended Posts

I am 10 days post op and don’t feel any restriction with the liquids. When do you feel any type of restriction?

I am getting worried as everything seems a bit too easy

You won't feel restriction with liquids. As soon as they hit your stomach they start sliding though to your intestines. I had a live swallow test and I could watch on screen.

As soon as you are on soft foods you will feel the restriction.

Also if you gulp liquids right now, you will feel restriction. The fact that you aren't feeling restriction says that you are taking small sips and doing the right thing. You really don't want to push it right now.

Very, very, very normal.

I was the same way.

Guess what?......later on you can still feel little restriction with some of the foods that made us what we are today......ice cream, pudding, Desserts and etc. Good, nutritious chicken breast, tuna, salmon, steak and other Proteins will fill you up in just a few bites. That's why they go first......and frequently throughout your day.

Even with the sleeve, we still have to be cognizant of the type of foods we consume.

Life this next year or so is all about Protein and supplements.

You are going do great.

I agree with @@OutsideMatchInside , it must be because you're drinking the right way. Keep it up, small sips at the time and you won't need to be struggling with burps..!

      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.
