    diet further down the page). Not just water! It's important that you remain hydrated after weight loss surgery... you must drink FLUIDS (preferably, low calorie ones such as unsweetened, caffeine-free herbal tea) but not just Water. If you only drink water, you may develop electrolyte abnormalities such as water intoxication syndrome. Talk with your team for recommendations specific to you, but usually no more than half of your fluids should be water. found this in an article http://www.bariatric-surgery-source.com/life-after-weight-loss-surgery.html

    sun let me rephrase myself. no the water did not do it i was saying becareful drinking just plain water,, you can lose nutrients through urine so drink like gatoroade or something. it happend when i increased mywater. ive been taking the pills for about a year and this just started happening so from now on i will have a gatorade here or there.

    i have been frustrated, but i got that 5lbs of water off thank god, back to working out but only 3 days of cardio and 2 days of toning i was over working my body. its time for the scale to move again i want to get to a 14 before my birthday in august. as far as calories. im still confused my nut said 1400 because i workout but its so hard. today i got it there. so lets see what happens when i weigh in on sunday.
  14. I disagree, this is a place for us to vent and ask questions. ive been on here for 10 months and i see the same questions by differant people who had surgery way after me and you know what i just dont read it, someone else who is either new or can relate to that person will respond. we have to keep in mind its a cyber world and we have people that didnt get instructions or dont have support like some of us, ive read where people live almost in the middle of no where and have no one to talk to, we are all post and pre patients and are individual. some people just need you to hold there hand, and some are strong like yourself, dont have people afraid to post on here and ask a question, you might be tired of the same questions but there is someone out there that isnt.

    green thanks, a co worker told me whts wrong and it makes since, i have high bp and i take meds and i drink coffee everyday and i workout almost everyday intensely she said that the meds and excersise brings it down and the coffe brings it up that could exlplain the whole dizzy thing im just off balance so she said try stopping coffe and lower my dosage and see what happens well i didnt workout out for 3 days and cut my pill in half and not as dizzy. i did have about 3 oz of coffee but thats the most i will have. and by the way i gained 5lb lbs and i really think its the Water i am holding on to it i drink lots of water so i guess i have to reduce mysodium more. momof i found it easy if you by one of the starbucks venti glasses they sell withthe straw. 4 of those and you are done. it works, i also put fruit in my water.

    milixxa thank you so much for the encourageing words. ms ive been drinking 100oz of Water a day. i thought it was the pressure also but it went back up and i was still feeling that way. the metallic taste just started today. im praying my body will start releasing fat soon. but i might have to reduce my workout from 5-6 days to 3 every other day. just not eating enough for that type of workout.
