Gastric Sleeve Regret

[RedOrangeSunrise 53]

The Water they had me sipping in the hospital made me want to barf, and I too used to love water. I'd read that many people prefer sugar free flavored alternatives to plain water shortly after surgery. My understanding is that this is very common. My favorite right now is Vitamin water 0, lemonade flavor. I'm babying my stomach right now, so no guzzling, but sipping at a good pace to avoid dehydration.

4-5 mos out I could drink as much Water as I wanted. Just keep drinking water and you will be right back to it soon. I found very warm water easier to drink than cold or room temp for awhile. Water has been my only beverage since leaving the liquid phase.

In at 7 weeks and can now drink fairly easily. Sometimes really cold bothers bothers me.

I love Water too, specifically very cold water. I could gulp my water again on my 1st month post-op, with an empty stomach.
