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/

Lots of people find their tastes change after surgery, but I don't think anyone really knows why. Don't worry too much, you don't need Water to be successful post-op. As long as you are getting your fluids in, it is all good :)

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...

I loved Water pre op. Now, it tastes like dirty socks. Cannot stomach any type except deja blu. You aren't alone.

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

My dislike for it after post op annoyed me but it went away in month 3! Keep at it and hopefully yours will go away too

      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! 😞
