Hi shelly. I have the issue with Water too. I do better with ice chips and frozen diet slurpees. Also crystal light and vitsmin water zero don't hurt like water does. Its also gotten better over time.

Try drinking it room temperature or for some it works ice cold. Also make sure you are sipping and not gulping. It is hard but once you get used to it, it becomes second nature. I drink mine out of a coffee mug which forves me to sip.

I'm feeling better I switched the Protein I was using. Now I'm doing premier nutrition chocolate. It's 30 grams Protein per 11 oz 1 gram sugar. Drinking is not causing pain now but I feel full all the time. Sometimes I feel like I have to wait a longer time between sips so I don't become uncomfortable. Are you doing any better? I still can't get enough fluids but I'm not feeling too dehydrated. I'm able to eat now and the whole not drinking a 1/2 hour before and after isn't helping with the Fluid intake.

I wanted so bad to have a sip of anything after I ate just to clear my palate! This does stink. It's an hour of time gone! I've noticed my pouch can't handle anything but liquid after about 7pm. It took me a few days to figure it out. I would get nauseous and feel horrible! As we figure the little things out it does seem to get better... One day at a time is all we can do!

I am 1 week out and Water is hard to do. I get a huge cup of crushed ice every day and it works great. Ice pops are a blessing too. Also. U can try doing half water half lite grape juice or trop 50 mixture. It makes the water thicker and more enjoyable and my nutritionist gave it the thumbs up

      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.
