I am only a week and one day out and I can drink 8 oz no poroblem in 15 minutes. I'm really confused on this..should I be concerned?

I never had a problem drinking either.. it doesnt just sit in your pouch it goes thru pretty quick.. but you are still early out and can not feel much yet.. you might want to spread it out over 30 minutes.

Nope, you should be delighted that you are having no complications and are getting your liquids in easily.

Same for me...liquids were never a problem at all.  You're one of the lucky ones!

 lucky you.  i have been able to drink with no problem too but i am just not a drinker...i don't like water and etc so its hard for me to get my recommended water in...i do get 6 glasses in a day and every day i strive for more..so good for you that you can drink so much.  I have always been a gulper when i drink and noticed i could do this from the start...well maybe not gulping but taking bigger drinks than sips and smaller than gulps..lol
