I was operated 12.3.14 and I'll be 2 weeks post op tomorrow about 5 days after surgery I was literally able to drink a bottle of water in 15-20 minutes with no problem. I feel like I didn't even have surgery did/does anyone feel/felt this way? Is it normal?

OH dear!!...i was sleeved on 12 2 14..i was a a marathon Water drinker before the sleeve..Now i dislike water and no it takes me half hour to drink 4 ounces of anything...but on the other bit at times i feel like i was not sleeved...no pain no gas except for the constant burping and fullness that s all ooooh and the weight loss

Wow do u get the hunger pangs also? I do and at times I want to eat a salad or fish but I went to my dtr today and he wants me to do the full liquid for 2 weeks so I'm still on that and on Xmas day I start my pureed stage so let's see what happens???? I also don't feel that restriction that I see a lot of people talk about

I am the same. I am 5 wks out but have felt this way since surgery. I haven't really felt the restriction yet. I do get full quicker but I get hungry in a few hours

I loved water before surgery, now it's all I can do to get it down. I switched to Isopure protein water. 40 grams of protein in 22 ounces. Has a flavor, but not too sweet. All natural. I highly recommend it. You can get it at GNC. It's pricy, but worth it.
