willsmommy 2 Posted May 12, 2008 How much should I be able to drink at 4 days post op?? I feel full all the time, I guess from swelling. But I know I need to be drinking a lot. How much could you guys do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neverB4 2 Posted May 12, 2008 Honestly, if I drink more than 2ozs at one time, I'm full. I'm 5days post-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LiseSeattle 0 Posted May 12, 2008 for me, drinking was never a problem...i could drink a full slimfast shake no problem even 3 days post-op. now that i'm at restriction, i can do half a shake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enchanted 2 Posted May 12, 2008 I'm 12 days post-op and still having trouble getting in all of my Water. I can drink 3-5 ounces at one time, but then I feel so full. (I think it's bloating, actually.) At four days post-op, I was still drinking one ounce at a time. Every 20-30 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mari12524 0 Posted May 12, 2008 I would suggest that you get a reusable plastic container and put your water/ juice in it. I found that it help me see how much I consumed over the day. Instead of just guessing. PS I Love SF Grape Koolaide!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bettyann29 0 Posted May 13, 2008 I remember for about the first 4 days I could hardly even drink without being so full.. I literally had to make myself drink and at the end of the day I might have gotten 1/4 of a bottle of Water down.. I was afraid I was going to dehydrate but about 4 days out I was able to start drinking more.. I was shocked that I had absolutely no appetite Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
