Any tips/tricks for getting all that water in?



Recommended Posts

Before surgery, I would drink unsweetened iced tea from morning to night. I've been good about giving up the tea, but just can't get this Water down. Got 64 oz one day....but usually get just 30-40 oz. I have health problems, so worry about dehydration. My best day, I drank 1 oz every 15 min....but still didn't get to 64!
pray tell....how do you do it?

Every time I swallow, the Fluid travels and hits my stomach causing it to cramp up. It's really painful. Any advice?

Have you tried room temperature or warm fluids? I couldn't drink anything cold for the first 2 weeks because I had a similar problem.

I have also struggled since switching to foods and having to space out food and Water.< br>I just keep at it. I'll even set an alarm as a reminder I can start drinking.

      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! 😞
