How much to drink while on liquids?



Recommended Posts

My surgery was Tuesday for 24 hours I didn't drink anything except when taking meds. Then for next drank 30cc in different time intervals 30 mins, 20 mins, 15mins etc. My question is how much should I be drinking at one time now.I've been able to do the 64oz+ of fluids per day with no problems. But only drinking in small amounts, how much can I drink at once and how often?

Hello, You are suppose to drink Water every 15 mins only 4ozs at a time when you eat your liquids substitute it for food don't eat and drink at the same time you will throw up. For your liquid diet you can drink chicken broth or beef broth. Hope this helps...

Be carefully gentle with your stomach. The nurses had me drinking 1 ounce about every 10 to 15 minutes. Be patient, I'm 11 weeks out and instead of 2 swallows at a time I can drink 4 swallows. Try to stick to Clear Liquids. Carbonation will upset your new stomach for a while.

      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.

      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.
