Everything else was making me gag! I couldn't stand any more yogurt or Protein Shakes. I had to have something different, besides Soup. Ugh. But yeah I can go to "soft" diet Monday so I figured a scrambled egg wouldn't hurt me this close to that time. And soft foods include fish and chicken and Pasta (chewed very well)...so I rlly don't think an egg will do any damage.

I drink more than an ounce of liquid (water/tea) in 20 minutes and was sleeved 3/18. Now you have me worried I'm doing it wrong.

I was sleeved 3/20 and can drink one to two oz of liquid in 20 mins

Missmeow me too! I can drink a fair amount at one time. Maybe an ounce and a half or 2 ounces every 10 or 15 mins. I don't do that ALL day. But I can drink a few swallows with no pain or any negative feelings. Should I not do it even though im having no problems?

Mine says frim my nut. I should be drinking 60-120 ccs per hour. 1/4 to 1/2 cup approximately.

50-60 grams Protein 48-64 Fluid oz daily.

Starting 2-3 days post op and lasting for 10-14 days of course each surgeon os different buy this is what is recommended by my surgeon and nut.

I guess I need to measure/track better because it seems I can drink a bit faster than that. That could just be in my mind. I kind of lose interest when drinking my Protein Drinks. I have not had any pain except at first at the hernia site and later when I forgot and drank a normal drink (not a gulp). It was fleeting but i Didn't do that again. Otherwise I kind of feel it slide right through?

My surgeon did not give any rules just said to drink slow and get fluids in.

My nut has 80g Protein and 64oz combined fluids. I haven't quite gotten to the protein goal yet.

Missmeow im exactly the same way. Not meeting Protein goals yet. I know I will when I can actually eat some meat. The sweetness is killing me right now (the shakes)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
