I am 10 days out of surgery and I am drinking about 80-90oz of Water a day. How much water are you able to keep down after surgery?

I didn't do all Water, but a combination of water, gatorade zero, and sugar-free popsicles, getting about the same amount in total as you

Dang, you're doing great! I got about 64oz of Water when I was 10 days out.

That's still good I met a few other patients that were drinking only half of what you drank.

That's awesome! I am 10 days after surgery and I can't get that much Water down - getting close though. I sip and sip all day but it's still a challenge for me.

Oh it is a challenge, I'm not perfect myself and I'm nearly 7 months. But I remind myself people do better on Fluid drive, dehydration really makes your pains and sorrow worse, I honestly do the 2 oz every 15 route, my pouch Ms Precious Pouch is a cranky taskmistress, the reason I'm awake and posting is she is not letting me sleep.. I simply am praying she doesn't want to engage in delayed vomiting or something. I'm still on Zofran, as well as Dexilent (PPI) and Carafate to heal my ulcers. I am not an average run- of- the-mill RnYer, but it is my Journey and I will get my final victory like everybody else, in the meantime It Is What It Is! Lived too long to cry about it, all my tears and fears have dried up, and I am still a tough old broad who is in it to Win it! Hey, set your mind to being a🌈 success and you will be!👈😜👉

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
