ms.k 20 Posted July 6, 2013 I am 10 days post sleeve (June 26) and I am so thirsty but can not get any Protein or for that matter any drink to feel comfortable in my belly. Advice please!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted July 6, 2013 This is really early out and your stomach is still really really swollen. Take sips all day long if you have too but keep the Water going. Try diluting gatorade with water and it will go down more easily. You are probably dehydrated right now so you really need to do 1 of 2 things. 1st go into the urgent care or ER and get an IV if you get worst, 2nd start sipping, sipping, sipping, sipping every 15 minutes at least. You don't want to be dehydrated it's misable. 2 Kami63 and MIJourney reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 78 Posted July 6, 2013 Have you tried experimenting with temperature? Sometimes warmer liquids feel better. 3 MIJourney, Ms skinniness and Ladydawg2009 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GA30067 1 Posted July 6, 2013 I too was sleeved on the 26th and I also felt dehydrated in fact when I woke up the third morning I felt very dehydrated. I was sweating and some nausea, at that point I started drinking my drinks without ice. Since then I feel great, I get the amount of daily fluids easily. 1 Ms skinniness reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ladydawg2009 39 Posted July 7, 2013 I agree with Andi. I had trouble too but not as much when it was room temp. 1 Ms skinniness reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms.k 20 Posted July 7, 2013 Thank you al!! Glad to have the advice!! I have tried different temps and always keep it down, just feels awful in y belly, but i'll get by.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CassieWNY 100 Posted July 7, 2013 Sleeved on the 27th... Really sounds like you're dehydrating. I was initially having issues and I started having a bottle of Water by my bed and drank a bit through the night when I got up. Somehow it seemed to make it easier for me when I woke up.... like I wasn't shocking my stomach. Just a thought. Feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruthie74 101 Posted July 7, 2013 I am 10 days post sleeve (June 26) and I am so thirsty but can not get any Protein or for that matter any drink to feel comfortable in my belly. Advice please!! I got sleeved June 17 and I am still struggling with my Protein intake and the thirst I feel is crazy! My mouth gets so dry that it makes me nauseous. What happens is I end up drinking Water the whole day and not eating anything I'm still trying to get this right but since I'm not even a month out I'm trying not to be so hard on myself I guess my point is your not alone. We will get this right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
artymama 170 Posted July 7, 2013 I literally drink all day long. I am constantly siping something. I start from the moment my two feet hit the floor! You can do this, it's your full time job! I was sleeved 6/25. I am finishing my last ounces now before I let myself go to bed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
