I have been swallowing Water in a more normal fashion than I thought I would be since the first week post-op, but now, at Day 26 post-op, I would almost characterize drinking Water as "normal" for me. When I was able to introduce Premier Protein shakes at Day 10 post-op, though, it took me about 2 hours to drink one. Now, I can drink one in about 20 minutes.

I count my blessings about the water, though, as I have read about many people who are still sipping weeks out from surgery.

Never had a issue drinking Water after day 1... Fast or slow. Easy recovery here, but that worried me... Felt like I didn't have the surgery. I am a band to sleeve revision so things may be a little different for comparison purposes.

I still have to sip :( I took a gulp on accident 7 days post op and it hurt so bad. It literally takes me half a day to drink 12oz because I'm constantly sipping, sipping, sipping.

I'm able to take normal sips too. I had a rough first few days but doing well at 6 days post-op.

I can drink completely normal and I'm 12 days post op but I've been able to drink normal since like 7 days. I kinda got nervous when my surgeon emphasized sipping all day so I at least get my Water in and said "since you can't just drink a glass of water" but I could and didn't say anything because I thought I was doing something wrong

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
