Drinking while Eating

Hmmm. Ok. Thanks! So is it safe to assume that no one here was able to get all the Protein in during week 1-2 post op?

After day three I got in 60-80 grams in daily with Protein shakes, averaging 70. I just checked MFP to see.

I did. 60g a day. A shake made with soy milk and nectar chocolate truffle in the morning, a nectar drink made with Water in the afternoon and a different Protein Drink made with water around dinner time. 29+23+15=67g

I was able to get in 70grams a day, but I had to begin at 8 AM and drink until about 2 AM.

My Dr. told me not to worry about Protein at all for the first couple weeks - just hydration. That's the most important thing. :-)

I'm day 10 post-op. Lately, I've been getting 60-80 grams a day ( 3 sessions of 20-29 gram drinks per day). But I focus those over pure Water (since they;re all liquids), so maybe I'm not getting enough pure Water. I'm at least as hydrated as I was pre-op (which may not have been ideal either, I wager), but the last few days really opened up for me and I can drink more often for longer.

I'm a little worried I've done something wrong because at a movie last night, I got down a 29g Premier Protein shake (11Oz, 29g) and most of a large glass of water (must have been 20 Oz), which seems like too much for 2 hours... but I wasn;t feeling full or in any discomfort.

Worried I might be stretching the sleeve without knowing it though...

[EarthyGoalie 253]

Omg, I feel the same. I have been struggling to get liquids in until the last couple of days, like yesterday: I had a Premier Protein in under an hour (11oz) and a little bit of Water. I'm worried I'm stretching it too

Drinking while eating or too soon after eating has caused sliming and puking for me.

I am almost three months out... Haven't 'barged' yet but I have come close. What is sliming? I've read it a couple times on here and just curious...

My mouth fills with thick saliva and I feel like I need to spit, and a bit gaggy.

In these first 2 weeks I spit all the time. I feel like I have more saliva than ever.

My Dr. told me no drinking a half hour before and after eating as you will wash the nutrients through and not absorb them. Also will intake more than you should in the beginning. That is one thing I am having a hard time with.
