I was able to gulp everything until I got to a proper restriction. I now have great restriction and can only sip. If I drink too fast or take a big gulp, I'm in pain. Just take it easy and you'll be alright...

Right now you don't have any restriction beyond that caused by the post-surgical swelling. That will change as you add fills. Exactly how tight you get is entirely up to you and your doctors. I backed off a super-tight fill so that I can eat and drink more normally. That will delay my weight loss somewhat, but really made the quality of life better.

At the doctor's office when I get fills they have me gulp Water to make sure it goes down. You can gulp, but when you start getting good restriction you aren't going to WANT to, because you can have a few seconds of discomfort before it goes through.

I think what flipman meant to type was "The only things in life you regret, Are the risks that you didn't take."
