I can drink about 5 ozs. I'm too scared to try for more although I know there will come a time when I will be able to. I was reading over the instructions from my doctor -- this manual that he gave me -- and it says that I shouldn't drink more than 8 ozs an hour.

How much are you drinking?

My surgery is next mo., but I have been reading all the posts. Was just concerned as it seems I will be spending the whole day drinking all the Water, and shakes at only a few oz. at a time.

You'll be surprised... initially I felt full all of the time from drnking. But by week 2 I had a little give and could take in more. I know each person is different but after surgery just see how you feel. Take your time, follow your surgeon's instructions and you'll be fine.

Congrats on your upcoming surgery. I'm sure you'll do well.

Just wondering how much can you drink at one setting?

Are you talking about alcohol?

Lord no, just the basics that you have to drink. Like I said was just concerned that I will be spending every waking moment drinking water and shakes...
