Water is making me nauseous. WTH?!



Recommended Posts

The past few days, any time I drink Water, it makes me nauseous. I was sleeved on 12/8. I've been able to meet my Water goals until these few days. I can drink hot tea and Protein shakes just fine, it's only water that does it.

Any ideas? Will it get better - I've always been a huge water drinker, so this is pretty frustrating.

You could try Mio drops.

I can't do anything with artificial sweeteners - they make me sick. I'll try lemon tomorrow. I just thought it odd that plain Water would do that to me.

I loved plain, cold Water pre-surgery, but after a couple of weeks post surgery it stopped tasting good. It had a metallic taste. I tried it room temperature which was better. I finally tried drops. Mio wasn't bad. I tried Crystal Light. The grape was good. Ice tea now works but that is limited to one cup a day. Try the drops. I never would have liked them pre surgery but I do like some flavors now. Others went right into the trash!

I get minor nausea with Water. Some days it is worse than others. Try drinking it in the warm side.

@@ChronicJam The sleeve can be tricky at times. If you like coconut try drinking some coconut Water. It's a super hydrator.

I couldn't drink plain Water or use artificial sweeteners. They both upset my stomach. Also had a bit of lactose intolerance. I had to find Protein Shakes sweetened with stevia and I drank a lot of Lactaid, soy milk, diluted 100% fruit juice, regular Sports drinks, regular Vitamin Water, pedialyte and Decaf herbal teas. All of these issues resolved after about 4 months and I can tolerate anything now. Although I still dislike the taste of artificial sweeteners and prefer real sugar if I am drinking something sweetened.

I've been adding lemon and have gone back to sipping like right after surgery. So far, so good. It's gonna be hard for me to make my goal today, though! Thanks for asking! ????

Plain Water tasted so bad to me after surgery. It took several weeks before I could tolerate it again. People looked at me like I was crazy when I said that water tasted awful!

I am 4 months and Water is working better but still not easy. I miss it. Used to guzzle it. It does get better.

Water makes me nauseous if I drink it too fast. I was sleeves on 12/8/14 and didn't have trouble with the water until last week. If I slow down and sip really slow I am fine.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
