[victoriatxgirl 64]

How was the first two weeks wirh Water comsumption and hunger.im not getting all in what the dr told me to.and plus i have no appetite what so ever.does this change after the two weeks?

It does change. Water is still hard to get in. I am 10 weeks out. Now it's not that my body can't do it, it's just that if I don't always have it with me, I don't get it in. I still have not been hungry but my doc said to worry more about the liquid than the food for the first month. Just do your best, keep trying and it's going to get better.

How were the first two weeks with Water comsumption and hunger.

in my case, i couldn't drink much at first

I was not hungry - the shakes were filling me up

you just had WLS 2 weeks . give yourself a break

heard on this board that some people are so hungry and want to eat everything in sight. Never understood that one

things will get better as mommyare said - you'll be drinking and eating more as you healing tummy continues to "heal"

people all vary in recovery time, when they can drink/eat - their tummy will do the best it can. you have to work with it - then you slowly will eat and drink more.

drinking is the most important thing, always for the rest of your life. - Water is imperative, you must not get dehydrated

at your stage of the game especially, drink and drink some more. - don't worry about anything else, just drink alot of fluids

you'll get your Protein in eventually, ASAP, but for now drink.

good luck

Drink drink drink....whether you WANT to or not! This is a NEED...and a serious one! Include a variety of things...plain Water, flavored water, chicken broth, beef broth, Protein shakes...it all counts towards your Fluid intake.

All the best to you!

I hit 2 weeks yesterday. Been getting 64-80+ ounces a day. The key is to keep Water (or your dri k of choice) with you at all times. Towards the end of the second week I also found that I could take bigger sips at a time and more frequently. Protein shakes took a long time to get down, though.
