Or use crystal light or Mijo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wps2 57 Posted November 27, 2012 Watermelon was always my favorite fruit. But it makes me throw up now. It gets stuck or something no matter how much I chew it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kauaigirl808 39 Posted November 27, 2012 i know its a lot of sugar but i have been on the fence of becoming dehydrated.. i just couldn't stomach Water on its own or juices, etc. This has truly brought me back... @wps2 I dont actually eat the pulp i chew it, drink the juices and spit out the pulp.. maybe it will work for u?

Catgyrl68 66 Posted November 27, 2012 Oh, how weird is this? My appt. is at 8:30 am, so I may very well see you there. I will be wearing a grey UH t-shirt, jeans and tennies. I'm so glad to hear everything went well for you, and you're healing well (other than that pesky gas problem). I've had laparoscopic surgery before, and had the same gas problem for a few days. Hope to see you Wednesday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
