Drunk water after eating



Recommended Posts

Lol, yes. A couple of sips isn't going to hurt you. The rule is technically more for bypass people, but it does also effect sleeve people. It's just preventing the food from washing through your stomach faster so you get the nutrients and stay satisfied longer. It won't physically hurt you or anything. I have heard some people will vomit if they drink too soon after though.

My surgeon said it is ok to have tiny sips to wet your mouth. Just don't drink as usual right after eating.

I've puked from taking a sip of Water directly after eating. Sometimes, I have to wait an hour or more until my tummy feels up to drinking again.

Yes I made that mistake the other day, I am almost three weeks out from my sleeve surgery and I nearly lost my lunch when I did, it was an awful feeling. I won't make that mistake again.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
