How much to drink while on liquids?



Recommended Posts

My surgery was Tuesday for 24 hours I didn't drink anything except when taking meds. Then for next drank 30cc in different time intervals 30 mins, 20 mins, 15mins etc. My question is how much should I be drinking at one time now.I've been able to do the 64oz+ of fluids per day with no problems. But only drinking in small amounts, how much can I drink at once and how often?

Hello, You are suppose to drink Water every 15 mins only 4ozs at a time when you eat your liquids substitute it for food don't eat and drink at the same time you will throw up. For your liquid diet you can drink chicken broth or beef broth. Hope this helps...

Be carefully gentle with your stomach. The nurses had me drinking 1 ounce about every 10 to 15 minutes. Be patient, I'm 11 weeks out and instead of 2 swallows at a time I can drink 4 swallows. Try to stick to Clear Liquids. Carbonation will upset your new stomach for a while.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
