Not Hungry, Just Thirsty

[thehappycat 91]

Sleeved on August 13 and doing well so far. I had my 1 month appointment and I'm 22 lbs down. Yay!

Anyway, I've noticed that lately I don't feel any hunger at all. But I constantly feel like I'm dying of thirst. It doesn't matter how much I drink or what I drink, I still feel thirsty. I don't think I'm dehydrated. I'm always carrying a Protein shake or a bottle of Water with me and I keep sipping, but I'm just so thirsty.

Anyone else experience this?

I am only 12 days out and I feel like I am dying of thirst. I was a huge Water drinker before surgery and I feel like now I can't get enough. I am always sipping and sometimes I even take a bigger gulp. I just don't feel satisfied anymore thirst wise.

I am also always very thirsty... I loved Water preop but now it just won't stay down... so I got an ice shaver and now eat tons of sno-cone like ice and love it. I can eat a whole tray of ice a sitting... def helps w the water intake!

Also... the cold of the ice is so refreshing and now I crave that more than any food!

Never thought of ice. I've never been a big ice person before, but I will try that. Thanks!

I wasn't either... still can't stand to chew ice, but a big bowl of sno-cone shaved ice w a spoon really hits the spot. U can also find sugarfree snocone flavors if u don't like the ice plain... not as refreshing that way to me but my friend prefers it. She even gets Protein drinks to flavor them with for an xtra boost of Protein.< /p>
