When you drink while eating it thins out the food in the stomach and allows it to pass through the stoma more quickly and you lose the feeling of satiety and fullness faster leading to wanting to eat sooner and feeling hungry

i agree with 1st poster and it also can fill you up too quickly before you can get the protien you need.It can also be painful if you drink alot.I thought i would have a problem with this rule but i put just enough in my mouth to absorb on my tongue.It never goes down my throat and that satisfies me completely.best wishes to you.

I agree and also have heard that most people who regain weight, drink while eating or soon after. Not worth the risk! Also you have to give your body a chance to absorb the nutrients in food and washing it thru with a drink prevents this. It not only washes it thru the pouch quickly, but the small intestines. I hope you can get yourself losing again. Go back to basics. Merry Christmas! Hugs,Kim

I stopped at around nine months as well. I Find it is hard to get the last of the weight to go. But I am enjoying the new body and engery and have decided to just be happy for a while and not worry so much about food.

One reason for not drinking 30 minutes before eating is that the fluid fills your pouch and you cannot get your protein in. the rason for not drinking 30 minutes after is that you force the protein out of your pouch and miss your nutrients and force your body to flush out your poubch.
