Problems with SF drinks



Recommended Posts

Really strugfling with liquids...8 days out, and its all I can do to hit 55-60 grams.I have several sf drink mixes etc that taste ok, the problem is they make me very nauseated. I had the same issue with my band. Its been a lifelong issue. Same thing with Water...I can drink a lil, but a lot makes me sick. Had issues when I played ball.

Right now the only thing I can hack is Diet Lipton Green Tea...and its iffy...

What to do? Pop is definitely not an option, an I am fine with that. My PA did not want me drinking juices, kool aid or hi c...

Anyone else had this issue?

Have you tried just soaking fruit in your Water? With a piece of fresh ginger for nausea? Like a gallon pitcher, filled with Water, then chilled with sliced strawberries and oranges and a 2in piece of peeled fresh ginger sliced? Ginger is a natural nausea remedy, and maybe you need flavor without the sugary taste. Hint Water also has this taste

I wish I could just have gatorade or something....think that might also help with general lack of energy.

Try g2. 45 call in 20oz so cute it with Water. It was the only thing that worked for me right after. Now I do infused Water, all types of loose tea, and Vitamin water 0.

What about herbal teas? There are some wonderful flavors made by Yogi. My favorite right now is cranberry spice. I have actually found that drinking flavored waters slowed my weight loss. I'm not sure why, but as soon as I switched to plain Water and herbal teas exclusively, the weight has been falling off.

I drink a *little*regular Gatorade (usually diluted with some water) every now & then. I have restless leg syndrome so my dr suggested it to help with the leg cramps get bad. I don't drink more than 4-6 oz though cause it can cause tummy problems

I feel the same way. We need *a few* calories.

I still use zofran occasionally. Just takes the edge off

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
