How long do you wait to drink after eating?

I find myself really thirsty after eating. Sometime I think it might be because I was really thirsty in the first place and not hungry.

Do you still wait 15 mins after drinking to eat?

Two hours after eating before you drink? I've only been waiting about an hour and I'm eating just about every two hours which is a bad habit I've restarted.

<p>I drink up until I eat, but find I don't want to drink again until an hour afterwards. It just feels gross most of the time and eating/drinking at the same time is unpleasant. Soup isn't fun anymore either (have to drink the liquid first then eat the solids). I would have thought this would be gone by now (6 1/2 months out), but it's not. Oh well, maybe that's a good thing.</p>

That should go away. I don't have a problem eating soup (liquid and contents together).

I find that I have to set the timer on my phone to show when it's ok to eat or drink again.

I don't really worry about if I drank before I eat, but I wait 30 minutes (approximately) after I eat to drink. If I am super thirsty I will take a couple sips, but otherwise wait 30 minutes after eating.

Same here as most I stop 15 minutes before and wait 30 minutes after. 2 hours is a loooong time :) Kooto's to you woman for waiting or trying to wait! :)

I can drink up until the time I start eating and nothing for 30 minutes afterwards. Doctor's orders, I've been doing this for almost four years.
