Drinking Too Much?

I am on day 9, and still on liquid stage til day 21, i am a bit worried I am able to drink too much, I just made a cup of soup with bout 200-250ml (6.7oz-8.4oz) of water and drunk it in 1/2 hour with little or no pain, my book says I should be drinking 125ml (4.2oz) every half hour... Its not with everything, but i just noticed how quick i just drunk it, I am worried and don't want to stretch my sleeve... What amount is everyone drinking at around 9 days out? Anyone else doing this?

Everyone is different. I was able to get down 64 ounces 2 weeks out. As long as you're not in pain or pressure then don't worry. Listen to your body, you'll feel the pressure. It was hard for me to understand why I was getting things down so easy but when I did push too far it hurts.

After the first week, I also had the same worries. You'll definitely feel it, if you've pushed your sleeve too far. It's great that you can get your fluids in! Good luck!

Once you start on mushies, purses,and regular food you'll feel your restriction - liquids go down easier usually. You're fine, just try not to drink too much too fast, you'll know if you do. That's one thing you can.be sure of is that your new stomach will let you know if its unhappy
