No... why do you not want to drink Water?

I would think you would need Water to rehydrate yourself, especially when exercising, right?

It's not that I don't want to drink Water, but I was told by my surgeon to not drink a lot at one time and take small sips.... I really want to drink water while working out.

Just drink in small sips over the period of your exercise. It's only Water and it goes through very quickly and easily.

First I've heard that one. I would think if you are exercising you are 4 - 6 weeks post surgery and you can drink all the Water you want. Interesting, I have no problem drinking lots of water while exercising. Just take it slow, see how it feels, you'll know if it is too much at once.

I guess nothings wrong with drinking Water within your exercise. I mean you will definitely let it out when you sweat. Hope it helps:-)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
