I am 4days post op also. I work all day to get in Water. I know I am still not getting enough Water in yet. I haven't had a bowel movement and can only take a couple sips at a time. My surgeon said that I will hate him now but love him later because he makes a tighter sleeve than most. He said my stomach is only the size of my pointer finger. I am more worried about getting my water in for now so I don't get dehydrated. I will worry about more Protein later. Too bad no one has come out with a Chettos flavored Protein shake. I am already tired of the variety of sweet shakes out there.

That was my worry, I'm 4 days out also. Just keep sipping and as long as your urinating your ok. If that stops that call your doctor. Do what u can it will get better.

I was under the assumption that I could not take anything else.

No no, you should be on something like that. My surgeon wrote me a 3 month script for Nexium and I was also told to suppliment that with Zergreid. Get with your surgeon or PCP and start working that. you'll feel much better.

Not 100% sure, but both are really really small. Haven't had a problem getting them down at all. You can get Zergrid, OTC and it's tiny too.
