Are able to drink more liquids at one further out from surgery

*one time

I am blessed to be able to drink almost as much as I was pre-op. Everyone has different tolerances however. Be optimistic...you'll do just fine!

I am 6 weeks out and still sipping! No straw just right from a cup. I found that I could not quench my thirst at first but I had to focus on making sure I drank at least 50 oz. I hope it gets better and this helps!

oh, i try to keep fluids between 64 - 70oz but sometimes i tend to drink more doesn't seem to bother me but now i have an idea

Yes you can drink more as you get further out. I personally did not have much trouble all along but now at 7 months I drink a minimum of 120 oz a day.
