water after being banded



Recommended Posts

How are you able to sip Water when it is really hot outside or inside. I feel like I could drink this whole bottle of water. I am trying to still sip it but I am not feeling like I had enough water. so how do you handle drinking water in the heat?

It takes a long time to get your Water since you have to take one sip at the time but it is important to do it otherwise you'll get dehydrated. One day I felt like getting dehydrated and it took me about an hour to take 32 oz of Water. I keep a glass of water all the time and take a few sips every 30 minutes or so.

Good Luck!

I know like it sees you can't get enough Water but just remeber it is only a couple or few das before you can drink a full 8 oz. of water also I kept ice in a glass and took y eds so I slept the first 3 days after being banded , then if I was awake I could get my sips in every 15 minutes or I could just suck on the ice also when they say you can have liquids I ate the sugar free popsickles like crazy so that helped keep me hydrated till I could acually start drinking a full 8 oz of water, I am alost a year out and now I drink a lot of water., since us bandsters aren't suppose to have anything carbonated cause I heard it could mess up the band so I stay away from anything carbonated .

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
