I have been having similar things. Actually five weeks post off. Have been on liquid until the four week mark. Since switching to puréed/soft my stomach hurts whenever I drink water. Only a few seconds after a drink but annoying and makes it hard to get liquid in. Hoping it's just a phase from getting used to it.

I have been doing the GNC lean 25. Both pre- op and post op. Good flavor and mixes well. 25 grams of protein per serving.

Hi. I am one week post op. Things were going good. From day one I was able to get 60 plus ounces of water. Protein I was lacking on (70 grams recommended). Now a week later drinking water makes me want to gag. Before surgery I would drink nothing but water. I am currently looking for other alternatives. Yesterday I fell in love with V8 juice. Any other ideas?

Glad I am not the only one. I won't give up on it. I have and liked Propel and the crystal light add ins. The one I am worried about is the Original V8. Just because of the extra sodium. I am absolutely craving them.

I am almost one week out (3/24). Water hasn't been an issue. It takes me all day to get the 60oz they require. I have now started adding in Propel and V8. Didn't realize I could do V8 but it's on my paperwork. It's been a welcome relief. I have been struggling with getting the Protein. DR wants 70grams a day. I get so full from one shake that it will take 10 hours before I can even consider drinking another. I started exploring other options to get it. chicken broth, cream Soups, yogurt (never been a fan of Greek).

I had my surgery on the 24th. That was and still is the only real place I have had pain. Doesn't hurt unless I move a certain way and then it wants to drop me. Also sneezing does not help. Good time for surgery considering my allergies.
