Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   |  hmmmm ok heres my stupid question. first off let me admit im slacking on the fluids. but, my quesiton is, if you DONT start drinking 1/2 an hour after you eat, does the food just sit in your pouch? like i said ive been slacking and i know from previous talks that drinking pushes the food thru, but im wondering if NOT drinking will keep you fuller longer? i feel full all the time  again...

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Hey Kenya, from what I have been told, if you dont drink 1/2 an hour after meals, you WILL feel fuller for longer.

| Super Moderator  | There are variations to pouch rules, and many of them say 1hour or more, rather than 30 mins. I do think 30 mins after a meal is too early, I think it was stop 30 mins BEFORE, don't 1 hour or more AFTER.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | FIGURE THIS: Since I eat 5 times a day....and it takes 30 minutes to eat....with no fluids 30 min before and 1 hour after that means I have at LEAST 10 hours a day I cannot drink. Now that leaves 6 waking hours- seriously how can we get all the liquids in? I do my best but I have yet to get to the minimum 64 oz requirement.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | im lost. lol. i was told stop 30 before a resume 30 after. but being that im a lazy bum i havent really been doing that either. i drink basically when i feel like it which generally runs WAY MORE thn an hour after i eat and even then its a few sips not the full amount. but im CONSTANTLY full. so i thought maybe that was why?

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | my surgeon & nut told us we could drink ALL the way up to the time of eating....but wait an hour after! I'm usually clock watching....sometimes I only actually make it 45 minutes before I HAVE to have something to drink!......sometimes, it's longer! |

| Super Moderator | Well, basically, you know the mantra--follow your surgeon's rules, no matter what instructions the others have been given from their surgeons. So, if yours is 6 meals a day, 30 before, 30 after, then that's the rule you should abide by.
