Talked To The Nurse About Stretching Stomach By Drinking Too Fast

The nurse assured me that unless I down a whole quart of water in a few gulps, I have nothing to worry about. We can drink *almost* as fast as we want as long as it doesn't hurt. We will not stretch our sleeves!

    Thank you for the info. I've heard this before, but since we hear all sorts of different answers from different questions from all of our surgeons and dietician its good to hear confirmation on this

  • I asked the same question yesterday and got the same answer. I'm still cautious with the thicker shakes though.
