Popsicles !

Hey everybody. I'm only two days post-op, but still haven't drank not even a full cup of water. It makes me nauseous. I remember reading on a lapband site that I can have sugar free Popsicles just once a day. Anyone else heard of this?

    I constantly had a Popsicle in my mouth the first few days. They kept me hydrated and sane! I'm a big advocate for sugar free Popsicles.

    Don't get dehydrated! If all you can get down is Popsicles, go for it! Call your doc before you have to be put on I.V. Fluids. You can go along time without food but you need water!

Yes! Sugar free pops have been a favorite of mine. I would also recommend something hot like tea or broth!

I'm trying. Just realized its the cold water that's making me nauseous. Going to try the room temperature. I'm just totally not hungry.

Popcicles were a lifesaver for me for the first 2 days postop. I couldn't get a thing down besides popcicles.

Popsicles was my best friend. I was so burnt out on broths and jello I just enjoy Popsicles and crystal light lemonade. Hang in there you can do this

I think Edy's sf Popsicles are the best. A few more calories but they taste so much better.

Must try. The ones I bought today were not delish but it wasn't broth :) so they tasted great to me since I haven't eaten in two days.

I didn't drink much of anything the first 3 days. I didn't have an appetite either. By the 4th day I was drinking more..just keep that water bottle(or cup) in your hand and take little sips. Good luck on your journey! :)
