Will i ever chug again!?!?
Sounds like I'm in the minority, but I'm 9 months out and I definitely cannot chug. I had trouble having much more than a sip until 5 months out. I can now drink normally, but not too much at once.

In the minority but not alone. I can't either. Takes me at minimum 45 minutes to drink 16 oz without feeling miserable.
I get plenty of fluids, I just drink all the time.

I'm approaching 4 years and I still can't chug like before. I can take several large swigs, but can feel uncomfortable. I can do more than just sips though(Thank God!) and can get through much larger amounts than after surgery. Other liquids I can drink with more ease. I guess it varies from person to person. But I will take it as long as I can keep my restriction!
I'm 10 months out, and I've had problems drinking water ever since day 1 postop. I can no longer take big swigs of water. And, plain water doesn't go down well for me (unless I'm in the middle of a workout.. which is odd). I CAN however kind of chug things like crystal light, G2, warm coffee, etc...
