So I'm a little confused I'm 7days post op... I can sip down 1 cup of water in about 20 min without any issues as at all...same goes for my1/4 cup of broth or some apple juice. No discomfort or cramping. . Is this normal? Thanks in advance

If you can sip down 1 cup of Water in about 20 min without any issues at all, then I would say all is good. Just follow your recommended daily fluid requirements. My surgeon recommended 65-80 ounces per day.

Sounds great. Where I found things started to change for me was when I started to eat more dense foods. I'm still able to get my fluids in, but sometimes I stay so full, I don't want to! So glad things are going smoothly.

Thanks for your replies... my concern is I never seem to get that full feeling or even discomfort to tell me u drank to much water or broth[emoji23]... it sounds funny but scary since I had RNY to limit food... hoping my new pouch will tell me a bit better when I get to pureed stage...

Hi i am also 7 days postop and at the first days i felt that full feeling. But i learn to sip small bits of water or protein. Maybe it does take me more time but i dont feel any discomfort at all either.

I would stick to 4 oz per hour, even if you can do 1 cup every 20 min, you don't want to get use to that water intake and make your pouch bigger..
