Article: Why We Don't Drink While We Eat
Someone posted this in the RNY forum, and I thought it was a good read so I'm sharing it with you all.

Us VSG'ers still have our pyloric valve! I've found that it works pretty normal. I can take BIG gulps of water and other (super thin) liquids and feel fine. But when I put something thicker down (even a protein shake or milk) it shuts and I feel full off of about a quarter cup. You RNY'ers had a lot more plumbing work than we did

Yeah, this is just those of us who had the full by-pass. I have made the mistake once of drinking too soon after a meal (I was really thirsty and couldn't wait any longer), but I definitely won't do it again. I felt so sick in my stomach. I now watch the clock like a hawk! hehe

Technically, I am still in bed. Just at a point now where Im snoozing while using the laptop. Im heading out east today for an overnighter, so Im just thinking of what I need to get done before I go. Plus I love those Vegie Chili and Joe packets!!! Thank you so much.
