"HI" VSG Post-Op 1 wk today

 I am very new to this board and have been reading a lot of the posts and getting great advice, I just wanted to share that and hope to become more active as I am finding it somewhat difficult to know what how much liquid is actually ok. 

I was a daily water drinker and could down 16oz in a mater of seconds, I am finding I can no longer do that but, I do find I am able to take on more oz's than most are saying they can handle, is this wrong?

It's definitely normal to fit in more liquid then they say when you are newly postop.  Once you begin to add in most foods..and dense protein..you'll find that your restriction is much greater.

I am two weeks post op and "knock on wood" havent had any issues with getting water or protein down.  I started walking the day after getting out of the hospital.  So far this is the best thing Ive ever done.  I just think people might post more when they have issues.  Which makes sense.  I dont think you have anything to worry about.
