Cheles 75 Posted March 2, 2012 I go to the gym at least 3-4 times a week to workout on cardio and strength. What I've noticed is it's difficult for me to drink Water while I'm working out. Is this normal? And if so, when should I be able to get fuilds back in me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lookingahead 7 Posted March 2, 2012 Good Morning! It's funny because I've recently realized the same thing. I used to drink quite a bit while working out, but now it doesn't quite sit well when doing cario. I don't feel sick or uncomfortable, just not quite right. I make sure that I rehydrate after the gym. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finding MeMe 204 Posted March 2, 2012 I started back going to the gym at 2 weeks and you will fit more fluids in as time goes on. I am at close to 6 weeks and can almost fit 16 oz during my one hour spin class. You are correct it feels sort of tight and it almost dosen't want to stay down. I continue to slip slowly and slowdown or stop to drink.. Good Luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheles 75 Posted March 2, 2012 Ok thanks did you get a trainer if not how did you know what to work on? How did you motivate yourself to go to the gym I don't have a trainer, yet. But I started by going to a toning class twice a week and then doing cardio 2-times a week. Now I focus on curcit and cardio 3-4 times a week. As for motivation...it's more willpower then anything. Don't get me wrong. There are a few times that I only made it twice a week like this week, but I am determined to continue on the path to good health.

Lissa 2,631 Posted March 2, 2012 Working out builds on itself, I find. If I go regularly, then I want to continue going because I see results. If I let myself get away from it, then I don't want to go. As Nike says, Just do it! It's the only way to go! 1 Mrs.Val reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindaS 316 Posted March 2, 2012 I drink a lot when working out, but I am several months post-op. Early on, I really struggled drinking Water -- especially plain water. I found that flavored water was easier. You might want to try something like Sobe water or Propel. Both have flavors that are zero-calorie options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
