Interesting.  She was here when I started typing!  I sure didn't mean to chase her away, but I hope she gets some better info than she had when she came in here where ever she's going!

I don't think anyone said anything that should have chased anyone away.  We were simply correcting some misinformation, and I thought we were doing it pretty nicely, too.

I know - I got the feeling she wasn't used to being corrected.  And we were definitely being nice!

You said "water also flushes you out and you dont absorb the necessary nutrients from the foods."  This is not true.

I have wondered this as well although I think I have been fairly good at not drinking after a meal. It's the before part that is hardest for me.

Thank you for asking and for your responses - very helpful!

since I never had issues with liquids, I've been drinking up to the moment I eat from three weeks postop (that's when I went to soft foods)
