catwoman7 11,220 Posted April 8, 2022 I was always able to drink more than they said I'd be able to. They didn't seem to care. Not sure why your person did, but whatever. And no, it wouldn't have stretched your stomach. Fluids go right through you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lizonaplane 1,613 Posted April 8, 2022 This whole "stretching your stomach" turns out to be a myth, anyway. There's no evidence that it's possible or that the size of the stomach is correlated with weight regain or the amount you can or do eat. I've heard a number of podcasts where they interview researchers and surgeons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GradyCat 3,695 Posted April 8, 2022 Don't worry too much about stretching your stomach. It's hard to do, it would take a LOT of eating and effort to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
