I am 10 days out of surgery and I am drinking about 80-90oz of water a day. How much water are you able to keep down after surgery?

I didn't do all water, but a combination of water, gatorade zero, and sugar-free popsicles, getting about the same amount in total as you

Dang, you're doing great! I got about 64oz of water when I was 10 days out.

That's still good I met a few other patients that were drinking only half of what you drank.

That's awesome! I am 10 days after surgery and I can't get that much water down - getting close though. I sip and sip all day but it's still a challenge for me.

Oh it is a challenge, I'm not perfect myself and I'm nearly 7 months. But I remind myself people do better on Fluid drive, dehydration really makes your pains and sorrow worse, I honestly do the 2 oz every 15 route, my pouch Ms Precious Pouch is a cranky taskmistress, the reason I'm awake and posting is she is not letting me sleep.. I simply am praying she doesn't want to engage in delayed vomiting or something. I'm still on Zofran, as well as Dexilent (PPI) and Carafate to heal my ulcers. I am not an average run- of- the-mill RnYer, but it is my Journey and I will get my final victory like everybody else, in the meantime It Is What It Is! Lived too long to cry about it, all my tears and fears have dried up, and I am still a tough old broad who is in it to Win it! Hey, set your mind to being a? success and you will be!???

Doing better than me I use sugar fee popsicles and water but still don't get that much down

I'm 9 days out from surgery and also take in 80 to 100 ounces of fluid, including the 3 protein shakes.
