@mistique90 I hope you get to feel better soon. Maybe you'll look back someday,and see this as a tiny bump in the road. Try really hard to get more fluids in, I think,you'll start to feel better when you do.[emoji13][emoji106]


im trying all I can to get all my slow sips in . I can introduce myself to full liquids now so adding sugar free pudding, strained cream soups, fat free ricotta cheese and different variety of liquids to my diet will help me more . thank you so much. [emoji847][emoji847]


There are days that I DO NOT want to drink. I make myself drink 64oz everyday though. I work in a hospital, but I don't want to be a patient here. It's a struggle, but you can do it. Protein shakes count in those 64oz.

Well let's assume she may be okay and stopped being,on the forums.
Those of you ready to have surgery, please remember to update us when you're all done. Happy stories inspire us all.
I had sleeve surgery October 2017. I was also able to drink tons of water before surgery. After surgery everything had a metallic taste to it. It lasted over a month. It’s something I wish someone would have told me about. Anyway I still have a hard time getting fluids down. I’ve lost 50 lbs but have hit a plateau since February this year. I’m not walking like I should because of pain in my right foot. I have two benign small lumps in the foot that causes pain. I also get bored and want to just eat. Not hungry though. I’m happy with the weight loss but would like to lose 30 more. I know my stomach has stretched unfortunately.
