Water texture issue after sleeve



Recommended Posts

I’m just wondering how many others have had a problem drinking Water (filtered, tap, bottled, etc.) without adding something like bouillon, crystal light, tea, or making into coffee.

I can’t be alone in this, right?

Until I started eating more food I was really struggling with the liquids, and plain Water just wasn't doing it! It's better now, but I still need it full if ice

I loved Water prior to my sleeve. I still crave it, but I'm not consuming water like I need to be. It's not going down right, I'm using drink enhancers, broth, Popsicles and hot tea. I'm still falling short, now this is war!!! I need to hydrate better, because I loved water prior to surgery. I've got to make this work, no choice.

Yes Plain Water makes me nauseous. I only drank gatorade zero then first two weeks until I was able to get some crystal light.

Me, too. I was a major Water lover before my surgery, and now it doesn't appeal to me at all.

I have found for me that Powerade zero goes down like silk. Water, broth and gatorade zero all have a different texture it seems now after surgery. I didn’t understand this post at first until I drank the Powerade zero and it’s so much easier to drink. Hope it’s all working out for y’all.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
