Sorry! I am new to the site and still learning how to find things! I was told by my dietician that all my fluids need to match the protein intake. So it was never just water specific. Everything fluid counts. Usually I drink about 4 bottles of 16.9 oz of water and bc I have so many calories (1200-1400) I need bc of my height, I also drink 2% milk. The rest is shakes and boost. I wish i was shorter! I can not get the 1400 calories they want me to get...they are even talking 1500! I am exhausted after 1200.

Hi Kare.1768! I had my RNY on 2/16 as well. Because I am a girl who is 6ft tall, I was told to get between 100-120g of protein. My liquid intake has to match this as well. My weightloss is averaging about 2-4 pounds a week. I got a little discouraged at first seeing everyone dropping like 20 pounds right off the bat, but I have to remind myself to keep on keeping on. I will say that so far I am able to tolerate all foods so far. No dumping or vomiting. Knock on wood! Congratulations on your loss!
