Before I got my sleeve, it was nothing for me to drink 3 liters of Water a day. Since having my sleeve I think that I can count on one hand how many times I have had Water, plain water. I will drink it with K2O or the SF FF peach tea mixes that they have but I just can not bring myself to drink plain water. Has anyone else experienced this?

You betcha! After surgery i could literally taste the chemicals in the water and hated it. . .i would add everything and anything into it to make myself drink it. . . it took about 8 months before I actually could tolerate plain water again, now, at 1 year out, i can drink water like a champ again! Don't worry it does get better . . .

I have no problem at all with the Water. In fact I am taking in 4-16.9oz bottles of water through out the day. It's the Protein Shakes I am having problems with. I think I finally found one I like "taste sooo yummy, almost like chocolate milk" so I am fixing to buy a case and really start pushing myself to get it in. 1 can has 35ozs so you add that to the meats I consume I will be getting in a pretty good amount of Protein after this. You really have to push yourself with the amount of water you consume. I thought I was getting a uti or worse kidney stones because my urine turned brown "tmi sorry" I talked to the doctor and the meds he has me on can cause the brown urine. I was just fine, it still scared me into drinking more and more water. LoL

      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?

      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.
