I was told its because when you eat solid foods if you drink while you eat you will wash the foods down faster, thus you will not absorb the nutrition you need. I know this is true because I originally had the band and it didnt work because I did this exact thing. It also washes the food down fast and you are no longer full. But all this is only true once you get to the actual food stage. I am still on liquids so I'm drinking everything I can to stay hydrated when I can! Good luck all!!

I had my surgery yesterday morning!! I feel great today. A little sore but so glad I went through it. He found a large hiatal hernia and a whole in my esophagus. But he patched me all up and I am doing great. Just waiting for my leak test, then I can go home!!

Almost 24 hours after surgery and at hospital. I felt miserable after surgery because of severe nausea. Today is a whole different story....feel tons better and have been up and walking quite a bit. No nausea and my stomach doesn't hurt and Water has been gong down great!

My surgeon has been doing this for 20+ years and the one thing he has said is only 48 grams of carbs, and 70 grams of Protein. No drinking while eating, and fruit.....later down the line...

Sip. Sip your yoghurts and your Soups from a teaspoon. Only 2 to 3 partial level teaspoons per minute. Savour the taste and flavour.
Eat mindfully.
Slow right down or stop when you feel part full.
Take 15-25 minutes off. Drink some of your Water allowance in small sips. Don't pour. Don't gulp.

My dr said yes to tea remedies i use Teami tea

Hey all.. Day 2 here after my surgery. I just want to make sure everything I am feeling is normal. I had a surgery twin(someone I met from Classes) that we have been comparing and we are so totally different ! For instance I have a lot of gas pain I think thats what it is that is around my shoulders and back. I also have this super sharp pain on my left side (maybe where he pulled my leg tummy out). And I feel like I have stomach grumbling/hunger pain? IDK. And when I left the house I weighed 240.6 but now I weigh 245? Please give me some advise everyone, is all this normal?

Nov 15 for me...second day of preop diet..I've lost 2 pounds...

They pump you full of liquid so that is probably your gain. I'm excited for you.
