So, I’m 3 weeks post-op RNY. I made a dinner a few nights ago with a scrambled egg, 1/2 slice of high protein toast and a Morning Star meatless sausage. All within the realm of good food. However, I made the mistake of not waiting long enough after drinking some water. I finished not even half before the pain hit. That was the first time feeling the restriction. Ouch!! But it was a needed lesson! Follow the guidelines and no drinking 1/2 before/at least 1 hour after!

Sorry your tummy was unhappy. I doubt it was the drinking, though. That's quite a lot of food for 3 weeks out, even eating just half of it. 1/2 cup max is probably all your pouch can hold.

Careful with the protein toast stuff. Those items are not easy to digest at your stage.

I ate a protein coffee cake thing from here and thought I was going to die at about three months out. Felt like I swallowed a basketball....three weeks, ouch.
