Portion questions

Hello,

I am 1 week post op. I'm able to tolerate 14oz of muscle milk over a 30-45 minute time period. I take small sips and never feel over full or get the foamies. I am just concerned I will stretch my pouch. Should I be able to do that so soon after surgery. I also don't have much issue getting in my 64oz of fluids a day.

Thanks in advance.

I'm 5 days post op and as long as I go slow my 64 oz has been no issue. My dr has me drinking 12 oz of Atkins and Unjury shakes a day4oz at a time ( 3 meals so to speak). As long as you don't have any discomfort I would think its fine.

Ok! I was worried they tricked me or something! They put me under and cut me but left my stomach alone. I didn't really watch the clock close while drinking but I sipped slowly and took breaks. When it all went down with no issues and the container was empty I was like "wait......" I checked the receipt for the time and it was 45 min prior. I was worried I did something wrong!

I was told that the pouch is like a funnel with a 1/4 inch opening at the bottom so liquids basically drain out as we drink them.
