I've seen it a million times here and I'm experiencing it, I'm just wanting to know for those of you that Water Made feel sick, when did it stop? I'm such a water drinker and so sick of crystal light and such.

I agree! I always drank Water and now it feels "heavy" to me, without knowing a better way to describe it. Just two days ago I got Ocean Spray Cranberry-Pomegranate single serving pouches that mix with water similar to crystal lite, but it doesn't taste as strong as crystal lite. Hope that might help you. Maybe after 3-4 months we can go back to drinking plain water!

Water makes me sick, too. I was sleeves on June 24, so is been over 6 months. Lukewarm water isn't as bad, but I have to drink any water pretty slow. Sad!

I really struggle to get my Water in because of this. I usually put 1/2 cup of apple juice in a glass and then add 12-14 ounces of water. It's only about 50 calories and is so worth it to actually be able to get water down. I have found that crystal light and any other artificial sweetener drinks make me sick with the sleeve, even at over 5 months out. I know everyone says to watch out for juice because of the sugar, but it's only 50 calories and it is a whole lot healthier for you to get a little sugar than not being able to drink at all and getting dehydrated. I used to be a big water drinker before surgery, over 100 ounces a day... Now I struggle to get 30!

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
