LezzieLez 180 Posted November 2, 2012 If Mio or crystal light counts, I like the berry pomegranate flavor mio and either the peach ice tea or margarita flavored crystal light. I tried Propel awhile back, it isn't bad either. 1 CoCo41 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't feel nervous about my surgery this Tuesday, but I feel like Monday night and Tuesday morning I may be feeling very different than I do now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Upper gas pains are the worst part but they're much more manageable every day. The battle is getting in enough liquid, but as long as you sip all day, you'll be good.

Aaron in Tulsa 147 Posted November 2, 2012 Have you been using anything specific to help with gas pain that has worked? Gas-X strips are what my doctor recommended. They haven't helped all that much. I know they make Gas-X liquid, but my wife has been to 3 pharmacies and can't find it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biancahanke 0 Posted November 23, 2012 Crystal light raspberry lemonade is really good, and I agree plain Water tastes wierd. I am 3 weeks post op and it's been hard to get enough fluids. I also like sweetener with fresh lemon squeezed and lotsa ice, like lemonade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewellkeptwoman 15 Posted November 23, 2012 You want to make sure it has enough Protein. Isopure has it, but the taste is a little off. I think I'll experiment with crystal light or mio and unflavored whey powder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colunga65 8 Posted November 24, 2012 What would be a good flavored Water to get? Something right out of post op. My Dr recommends Crystal lite..i hate that stuff.. So he said i can do Vitamin Water lite. Taste better to me than propel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
