I Can't Feel Anything In My Stomach When I Drink Too Fast Anymore

[happytobehere 23]

I had a bad last two days with getting my Protein and Fluid in due to throwing a party for my father. But did manage to get in all my protein though. But I was drinking them alot faster than normal due to being in a hurry to get things done. But now, I don't feel that pain (twinge) in my stomach when I drink faster. Have I messed something up? I had my sleeve on Oct 23rd, so it hasn't been that long. Have I stretched something? Help.

I was sleeved oct 23, too! I found I can drink a lot more than the 4 oz an hour recommended by my nut also! I hear liquids go through faster than solids will when we get to that stage. I wouldn't keep pushing it, though.

Good luck to you on your journey!

I was sleeved the 22nd and I can drink a lot faster also. Last night I drank a 12oz shake in an hr. I can take gulps with no issues. The doc said it was fine but don't push it if I feel pain

don't stress out!

usually within the first 7-8 days post-op your stomach won't be as numb and you will begin to be able to drink "normally". gulping and not to mention burping a lot! :-) hope you're enjoying your experience.

Thanks everyone for the responses. That makes me feel better. I hope everyone has nothing but success on their journey.

I was sleeved 10/25 and have noticed that I am able to consume liquids with greater ease for the past day or two. There isn't any pain or obscure discomfort so I don't think there is anything wrong. I am just going to attribute this to the stomach healing and becoming 'normal' once again. The only concern I have is that I do have a very high pain tolerance and was concerned if this is normal.
