I hate water!

I do not understand. I am 8 weeks post op. I have lost almost 30 lbs!!!!

Before surgery I loved Water, I drank it all day, at least 640z. Now I hate it. I can not drink more than 80z or so. What is going on? I drink sugar free juice, tea, etc. but I can not get the water down. I just have no desire for it.

Can anyone explain/

I use to be able to drink it room temperature all the time now I only like it if it's really cold. I was advised a lot of ppl are don't have the taste buds water the first few weeks then have a better tolerance later on...

Try getting some mio and adding a little flavor. Or, get some flavored water. That's the only way I can do it.
