Everyday I buy a large Water EXTRA ICE from Sonic.

Then I drink 1 or 2 Lipton Citrus green Tea Lemonade. Chilled very delicious.

I know EXACTLY what you're going through. I find that as soon as I wake up and have my meal, I begin to drink. For me, a mini glass of ice cold Water helps. My goal is to drink it before it gets warm. Also ice chips will help out tons!!!!!!!!!! What kind of water are you drinking? Certain waters out there don't quench my thirst, like Fiji, Aquafina, Dasani. I love the PUR water purifying system, along with Nestle Life water. They contain certain minerals that will quench your thirst. Also, I am having sugar free popsicles in between my sips. If I leave my home, I take a bottle with ICE water and as soon as it gets warm, I buy more ice. Good luck and keep your chin up.

I get mine from the local snow cone vendor. Just ask what flavors they have in sugar free.

You may need electrolytes, too. Try some Diet Gatorade (G2) or the Crystal Light sport mix. Those really helped me.

Mio in ice water! My favorite is the mango/peach flavor.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
