How much liquid/water can you drink after being sleeved? I'm drinking about 12oz in 20min after a week from surgery is that normal or is it too much? I'm scared to stretch my stomach

My surgery was 9/26 and it takes me about 15 minutes to drink 4oz. My plan said to start with four oz an hour and I have just kept with that. Now I am taking about an hour and 15 to drink a Premier Protein shake.< /p>

@@mari12282

looks like you and @@Raynbolite @@Jen-2+1 are all newbies

PO many people have trouble drinking water/protein shakes

you must force/push yourself to drink

drink slowly, sips here and there do add up

if you don't drink enough you might become dehydrated

about 3 weeks PO, i was dehydrated :angry:

it was awful - they had to fill me with fluids/IV

spent the night at the hospital

i'll always remember the date

it was Valentines Day!!!

asap you can/should/must drink minimum 64 oz

the more you drink the better

try drinking Water at room temperature

crystal light is also a good alternative to water

drinking to your health

good luck

liquids go through your sleeve quickly and will not cause stretching.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
