Sleep is very important to healing and weight loss. I found that by day 5 I was able to get 64oz of fluids in, and I didn't have to sacrifice rest. Just lots of sips all day long. Protein shakes count. Please rest!

Straws are pretty individual. For some people they increase gas, for others they decrease it. I guess it depends on how you drink! I'm not sure why so many plans forbid them, since they're super useful for a lot of people.

Why do you think you need that much time to get your fluids in? 1oz every ten minutes should take about 10.5 hours.

Smaller amounts more frequently will get you there sooner. Large amounts stretch your pouch...so not good! cut the amount in half no more than 3 oz. .It will get better as your edema inside subsides... be careful not to overfill in the first weeks. it can do permanent damage.!You do not have all nerves working right in there... stomach has been cut.so you MUST measure, and limit your fullness mechanically.
