Eat-Drink But Drink-eat

OK i know that i can;t drink anything an hour after eating but how long should i wait to eat after drinking?

Dwight, You should check with your nutritionist. My instructions were to wait 30-45 minutes. He/she may have another recommendation. Linda

Hi Dwight The answer to your question according to MY Dr. is 15 to 30 minutes. Marianne

I drink up to a meal, then stop, waiting (early postop 30 min) later now 1-2 hrs.... Jamie Many people say fluid load before meals to quench hunger! Be well. Jamie

Dwight, My doctor says a minimum of 30 minutes before and after a meal I should be drinking. I think that whatever the doctor said about eating then drinking would apply to the other. Ginny

Dwight, I would do what your Dr tells you to but for me I drink up until I am ready to eat so I do not overeat now that I am 11 months out. I try to wait to drink after meals by the 30 mins but sometimes it is hard as I get very thursty. I wish you all the best! ~hugs~ Debra P

Hi Dwight, It's 30 minutes both ways for me! Kristine
