    Just be aware that Powerade and those sports drinks are filled with electrolytes (sodium). So if you're BP has been low or dizzy spells coming that weren't before surgery, they will help with those effects.

    However if you are fighting high BP, they are a bad idea. Also, by design they make your body hold on to Water.

    Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately I'm on the up and down of b/p usually it's too low...I do get dizzy spells once in a while

    I pay close attention to my body, if I feel my heart racing I definitely won't drink it.

    How about Powerade Zero? I drink those when I get tired of the Water flavors.

    Ewwww yeah those are gross. I like the blue and red Powerade zeros. Maybe some chamomile tea?

    Is this something that is new after WLS or something you felt before? If it's a carryover from before, I would suggest pushing through it. I used to say I hated the taste of Water (Diet Coke addict), but I learned to love it over time when I gave up DC.

    I use to love water...so I'm actually surprised. I try to chew on ice chips but I don't have time to always chew ice chips. For some reason when I drink Water it feels so heavy like I'm drinking cement.

    Have you tried putting flavoring in your Water like Mio or CrystalLite? I would definitely recommend against juice, since it is so high in sugar and you should avoid drinking your calories.

    I agree about the juice that's why I avoid it as much as possible but when I'm nauseous it's been a lifesaver. I never tried Mio or Crystallite but I'm willing to try. I'm curious how it tastes.

    @@Fredbear I am not going to get into the whole thing about revenge, or who is right and who is wrong. None of us know the whole story. But I do have to write a few things in response to your posts. There are a lot of men out there who still believe in honor, integrity, and responsibility. I have no idea what the dynamics were in her marriage, but I do know that two people created not just a "contract", but a family. That family has been torn apart for whatever reason. The man involved still has responsibilities, whether he chooses to acknowledge them or not.

    Regardless of what passed between him and his wife, the children are the ones who suffer the most in this. They will spend the rest of their lives wondering if it is something they did, and if they could have done better or made it right if they had just tried harder.

    You might want to consider editing your post to reflect the fact that it is only your opinion. You sure as hell don't speak for me, or people like me.

    And this@@Fredbear, is what a real man sounds like!! Not condescending, not boorish, not patronizing but with compassion and understanding of another person's grief, no matter the fault, no matter the reason!

    *shrug* Everything I post is either my own opinion or fact. You seem to overlook that at no point have I ever addressed the OP; my comments are directed solely at the hen brigade.

    Lmao I just have to laugh at the stupidity smh

    The best thing to do when dealing with a narcissist is to ignore them because there is absolutely no reasoning, no empathy, nothing that even makes logical sense. Trying to explain anything to them is like attempting to teach a fish to run.

    Kind of like teaching a ignorant b**t* to read or think, amirite?

    Again, *shrug*.

    No your not right you stupid disgusting low life piece of shit. Stop messaging me no one cares about your useless opinion. Before you try to insult someone calling them ignorant make sure you use proper grammar. Ignoranus! Ok I'm done with stupid old fuck face.

    @@reree6898 I'm truly sorry you're going through this. As a woman, as a mother, a wife, I feel your pain. Although one shouldn't need to be in a relationship to feel sympathy for what you're experiencing. It's really sad however the best revenge is happiness. As women we are built to deal with pain but that's what makes us strong. From looking at your picture I can see you lost weight. Having challenges with weight issues and kicking butt shows that your a fighter.

    Birds of a feather flock together.

    Actually when you take a vow in a marriage AND have children you literally don't have the right to just leave with no explanation. Of course your ok with his actions your not the woman he left after having surgery. Your not the one sleeping Alone in the bed wondering wtf you did to deserve that.

    You're right...

    I'm "not the one sleeping alone etc..."

    Nor do I have children...

    In fact, I'm not even married...

    However, I'm also not privy to the complete details of the OP's relationship...

    I'm not knowing of all the ins and outs of the situation...

    What I AM is capable of putting forward my opinion without resorting to judgmental name-calling and derogatory remarks...

    What I AM is a person who is smart enough to know that there are ALWAYS two sides to a story...

    I'm also smart enough to know that, upon reading one or two of the more recent posts, there's very little I can say that will be properly read or understood without resorting to the aforementioned childish antics...

    Chalk another win up for ignorance...

    Ummm you missed the whole he walked out on her and their children right after she had SURGERY. Now unless she's lying this fact alone makes him a COWARD, mmmk? And since you never been married or have children your comment would be considered "ignorance" since you have no clue what a marriage entails.

    Marriage is just a contract; contracts get broken all the time. What do you think divorce is? :rolleyes:

    Also, relationships can be ended by either party. You don't need the other person's consent to end it.

    Having children complicates it, but in the end if you want to leave, you can leave. (Just expect a huge load of cr4p dealing with the children aspect of it, legally...)

    There's a difference between a business contract and a marriage. For example you don't sleep in bed with your boss and have kids as soon as you sign a contract. I feel sorry for the woman who fall victim to some of you manipulating ass men! Y'all stick up for each other like some Girl Scouts. Children are a blessing not "complications " God I hope y'all ain't breeding.
