Liquid capacity



Recommended Posts

Hello I am new to this and have really found alot of your post helpful!

I was sleeved 6/27. I am suppose to start my pureed foods this Monday. But today i tried a little egg and it was fine and for dinner I tried a little mashpotatos that was also fine but I did fine myself in the restroom a little quicker then normal. (sorry tmi)

My question is about my liquid intake. I am wondering how much is normal amount of ounces to be able to intake? I just had a 16oz snocone and 8oz Water immediately after. It took me 2 hrs to finish but it was continuous, I never put it down. Is this normal? Or ok?

That is probably right for this far out. I remember being shocked when I could suddenly drink so much. First week post-op, I could barely get in 4 ounces per hour then suddenly by day 8 or 9, I was able to drink 8 oz in an hour and then a day or more and I could drink 16 oz in an hour. I think I came here and asked the same question. :)

I noticed a few days ago (6/20 surgery) that I could drink 16 ounces in about 10-15 minutes

It might be too hard for your stomach to process at this point. I did get some queso from a Chipotle-like restaurant and it went down well. Get the smallest one

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
