I never followed the don't drink within so much time of eating. in fact, I fogot what the rule is.

does everybody else do this or not?

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.

I will have a few tiny sips of water if I am out for dinner wth friends. I try at home not to drink for
30 min after eating, and will sometimes go 45 min to 60. It does help me not get hungry as fast.

I am bummed that my hunger is coming back after 18 months post op.

see, I've had hunger since 1 week postop. but then it was satisfied with a sip.

now, it's satisfied with a lot more!  but still, nothing to be afraid of.

if im out for dinner sometimes i will drink up to the point of eating, but i never eat and drink during a meal and i always wait at least 30 mins after before i drink sometimes longe r... I think it helps the food keep me full for longer  so im working on making it 45 mins to an hour after before drinking

I drink up to the time I eat. I'll sip if I'm out to dinner, but as a general rule, I don't drink with a meal and will wait about 45 minutes after I eat..

I drink up until the meal.  I do not drink while eating and wait at least a half hour after my meals.  I notice a huge difference in my hunger if I break this rule.

interesting!   I don't care about other liquids but I need to fit my coffee in!

I eat AND drink like a complete normie... no problems for me, and I refuse to be thirsty, lmao..

 I am still loving life with my sleeve! Been maintaining at or below goal for over 4 years!

I don't drink with my meals, unless I am eating out.

I sometimes don't wait the full time before or after a meal, but pretty close...  not anal about it.  But I beleive it helps me stay full longer... and helps give me a better chance to digest and absorb the nutrients in my food, before they leave my stomach...

I drink up until the meal and then wait anywhere between 1 and 1.5 hours before drinking again.  My tummy  doesn't feel good or "right" if I drink sooner than that BUT for some strange reason I can drink alcohol, usually wine or margaritas etc., while eating with no problems whatsoever...it's weird.
