Issues drinking water?



Recommended Posts

I am 8 weeks out and down 48lbs, lately I am having an issue getting all my fluids in because every time I drink, once it hits my stomach I am instantly queasy.

Any idea why this is happening??

I will be two years out in May. I frank my first full bottle (20oz) of Water two days ago without vomiting. It took an hour,but I did it.

I have to add a crystal light pack, a splash of Gatorade, a squeeze of lemonade drops, anything to Water to be able to drink it without being sick.

It totally :thuds: in my stomach.

@@rhondatk - This could be your gallbladder. It's very common to have problems with it after the sleeve. One of the symptoms is nausea. Call your doc.

I agree with the plain water! I have to add lime or lemon too it, and I enjoy the taste I just don't understand why it makes me so queasy.

I had my gallbladder removed years ago, thankfully that will be one issue I don't have to deal with!

Part of me was thinking maybe it's bc my stomach is so empty, that it's Water hitting all my stomach acids and not mixing well... Idk I'm reaching at this point! Lol

Have you tried drinking tepid Water instead of cold? I will get nauseous from time to time (still- 4 months out) and it is usually because my stomach doesn't like cold water yet. It will, in time, I'm told. I also use Water Enhancer drops to help the water go in easier. Good luck to you...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
