Was banded along with a HH repair on 6/15. The first week went great. After I exercised the other day I was really thirsty and started drinking out of a 20oz water bottle and before I knew it (less than a minute later) it was gone. I was under the impression that you weren't supposed to be able to drink that much at one time. And that if you could it indicated slippage. I've emailed my dr but haven't heard back yet. Should I be worried?

I would not worry. I am in the green zone and I can still guzzle down Water after my runs.

Same. I chug Water like nothing. :)

Once you start getting fills and have a little restriction, you'll feel the water as it slides down. But right after surgery, it just drains through normally.

My doctor says restriction is a dirty word. he says, "use satisfied instead."

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
