I am going to be getting a VSG in about 2-3 months. My 1st week plan is bariatric clear liquids: 1-2 protein supplements-40 grams per day(goal) and 48 fluid oz a day.

also week 2-3 is cream/blended soups and drinkable yogurts and 40-60 grams of protein a day and goal of 48-64 oz of fluid a day.

can over drinking disrupt the staple line? 

 

 

edit : I just read a new post that kinda answered the question 

 

thanks

I'm not sure but I wouldn't worry about it because you will be lucky to get that much fluid in trust me

As long as you're sipping it slowly, and not gulping it all down, you should be fine.
