Drinking after eating soup etc...



Recommended Posts

So I was never told officially to not drink while eating. I just have been reading and it seems like the norm.

So do you all consider purée Soup, cream of Soups or Protein shakes eating? Do you wait half hour after eating these things to drink?

I find it hard to not take a sip of Water after eating cottage cheese etc..

Not much of a Soup guy. My surgery practice does not require any waiting between drinking Water and Protein shakes. They don't consider it eating in that sense.

Drinking after liquids doesn't matter. It does matter later drinking with solid food because you are pushing it through and limiting your time feeling full.

Right after surgery you should be "eating" your liquids and drinking all the time.

I asked my surgeon about that, and she said that the drinking rule must be followed, but it does not apply to Protein Shakes or broth soups. Otherwise, wait 30 minutes before drinking Water.
