Drinking and eating at same time video

[Bbinder2002 5]

I saw a post that talked about a video available that shows what happens when you eat and drink at same time. I am 2 weeks out from my sleeve surgery and wondering how I can find that video.

It will not let me post the link. Go to YouTube and search for "WLS - No Drinking With Meals!"

I don't know about the video but didn't your doctor explain the surgery results to you. ? Absolutely no drinking with food. Wait at Least 1/2 hour After drinking to eat. And at least 1 hour or more after Eating to drink. There is no longer enough Room in the small stomach left to take in food an liquid. Some will have to be barfed up an that's No fun. I wrote down things doctor and nutritionist told me every appt. 2 weeks ,4weeks, 6 weeks an every appt. No drinking an eating. This is a new life style. You may Not be able to eat more than THREE spoons of food for at least 3 months. Seriously.

I did listen and take notes and understand. But actually having a visual of something really puts things into reality. And seeing this for me helps me show my family what could happen and keep them at bay when asking a million times "Do you want something to drink".

I've drank with food & what I found was it pushed the food through faster-I didn't stay full feeling. I've not vomited once. (My nutritionist said this too) I'm also 2 weeks out.

My doctor an nutritionist both said No eat I g an drinking both. There is not enough room. It will make you vomit an isn't good. Must wait hour for food to pass an digest. Otherwise won't work right. Michigan favors this. We have giant clinic here. Where you from? .

I'm from Texas, it's a huge practice here too -they don't want us drinking with food either. We are supposed to wait 30min. But I've done it out of habit & I noticed that I wasn't full as long -and I've not once vomited. We were cleared to slowly eat solids (well chewed) at a week and a half & I've tolerated everything. I don't make it a habit to drink with everything. I do notice I tend to get overfull with just food- that takes getting used to & I can eat more than I thought I'd be able to so fast after surgery. Like a meal could be a scrambled egg (which I would not be overfull on) an egg and a half-I would be overfull. They told us 1-2 eggs, but it varies per person and just take it slow. (I was under the impression it would be like half an egg in the early weeks/month) liquids after have actually helped stopped that overfull feeling-now maybe that's different with like a cut of steak and fibrous veggies (I've not tried those yet & I won't til like 3-4 weeks). I'm not trying to sabotage my success and be like hey I'm drinking with every meal so I can feel more comfortable after getting over-full, no..

I'm trying to stop the overfull feeling though (without liquids), the amounts of food all seem to vary-so it's a matter of figuring it out I guess..

But we were told don't drink with food as we will not stay satiated as long.

Oh I just read that it can effect our absorption of Vitamins from food due to lack of stomach acids for digestion-so even better reasons.

we had their store Soups an shakes for two weeks post op then Soup, yogurt an shakes next two weeks. Six weeks still soups, yogurts, some tuna, 1egg, shakes an above All No Fruits nor Veggies until we had our 60 grams Protein Everyday. But at only 1/4_ 1/2 cup at a time six times a day plus 64 ozs Water everyday who has time or room for more. No sweets, only 1 slice whole grain low fat low calorie bread, 35 cal for slice. I miss not having fruit an some veggies. I can't possibly drink for over two hours after eating or it comes back up at 3 months.

At two to for weeks here we were still on liquids, Soups, shakes yet. An always 60 grams of Protein.< /p>

I ate lean ground beef for Breakfast and without thinking as I got the kids ready for school about 15 minutes later I drank water-omg did it give me an overfull feeling.

I'm just getting used to more meats-so it's definitely a different experience vs. soft mushy foods
