16 oz in a couple minutes ?

I had my sleeve 8/16. I feel really full when consuming high protein shakes. Naked beverages also give me a full sensation and energy.(the green one). However this evening i consumed a Campbell's French onion soup with in minutes.I am hoping its because it is only clear liquid. But previous days water intake was not as easy, but it was also ice water, not warm soup. Only 1 week in and a little worried.

I can just say I'm jealous.....1) I can't drink but a few sips still, surgery was 8/6.....and 2) you are absolutely stunning! Welcome to VST!

I read in several posts and in my Vsg packet that warm liquids are easier than cold. I bet that soup was heavenly lol. And you do look awesome. Congrats.

Your sleeve is less inflamed now. It's normal for thin liquids to go down fast. Even in the hospital I had no issues drinking. How much you can drink is not indicative of sleeve size. It's just an indicator of how inflamed your sleeve is in the days and weeks following surgery.

I will be 3 weeks out Tuesday and I've been able to drink pretty easily and quickly since about 1 1/2 weeks out with no problems.
