I don't drink when I eat and sometimes for an hour or so afterwards but at all other times my drinking is how it was pre surgery.  I sit down at night with a 32 oz big cup of tea.

I didn't feel restriction until 5-6 weeks after surgery.   Eating solid foods definitely made a difference.

I didn't really feel restriction until maybe pureed or softs because the pylorus won't close on the liquids. But I sure knew when I was going too fast and when I ate too much. It is individual and everyone is different as the swelling goes down so don't look for a magic number of oz you can eat or drink. The advice from my medical team was to under eat the sleeve.
