Just A Tip To Stay Hydrated, Especially For Those Having Trouble Keeping Liquids Down



Recommended Posts

Don't drink something cold, no matter how tempting it is.

I know that it is soooo tempting to just have one sip of the ice cold Water especially when you are thirsty, but you'll end up throwing it up all.

I usually stick to green tea - especially in the morning.

It goes down much better than just warm Water, and plus it is supposed to be good for you with 0 calories, as opposed to some sugary or other drink variants.

In the afternoon, the cold drinks may work, depending on condition but never in the morning.

The whole point is, drink something that you will not throw up - I find that it has to be warm liquid, especially early in the morning.

Does anyone have any suggestion apart from green tea for 'warm liquid' for the banded people?

I have absolutely no problems drinking ice cold Water morning noon or night so I think this is another example of us all being on the same journey but with a variety of routes! Good luck getting suggestions that work for you :)

I have my morning coffee (which I know has caffeine and therefore can dehydrate you, but I gotta have it!). I don't find I have an issue with cold liquids in the morning as long as I don't chug them. And if I want to try to eat something, I'd better have a warm liquid beforehand, not cold (then I will bring it back up!).

Oh, Ill be sad if I can no longer have my frosty chocolate Pure Protein Shake in the morning. I hope Im one of those that can otherwise Ill do a mug of Decaf coffee...don't like a lot of caffeine and I hate hot tea. Plus I live in Az....we like our drinks cold because it gets so hot. It will be 92 today.

I also have no problem with ice Water or cold Protein shake in the morning. If I was unable to keep ice Water down I would consider myself too tight and get a slight unfill. Yes I am much tighter in the AM, but not that tight.

As far as ideas for something warm... I would stick to tea if I had that many difficulties.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
