Drinking water too fast



Recommended Posts

I am on my 4th week since surgery (gastric sleeve) and I’ve managed to take 3 gulps. No pains or anything. Is that good or bad? Also I broke my liquid diet due to seeing the fact every surgeon tells patients something different. I’m eating soft foods and again I have no pains or anything. Should I be worried?

Also what foods should I stay away from? I know rice and such are a big no but what fruits or veggies should I stay clear from??

I’m three weeks out today , this morning I inadvertently took a huge gulp of Water as I was making Breakfast and no pain nothing !!

For fruits and veggies I’ve heard to stay away from stuff like broccoli and celery. Certain fruits like bananas and watermelon that are high in sugars and can make your pouch feel bloated

I will be honest though I’ve had both banana and watermelon and feel fine , I can only eat half of a banana and maybe 1/4 cup of watermelon before I’m full. I have had bad experience with broccoli. I loved them before surgery so on my purée state I tried them and threw everything back up!!

I’m no medical doctor though just giving you my personal experience if you have questions call your nutritionist or Bariatric team they will be more than happy to give you medical advice

      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! 😞
