Water hurts but protein doesnt?

[turndown4what91 27]

I have the worst time with getting in my fluids. I can down my premeir Protein Shakes like there's nothing to it. I can finish off an 11oz shake in 10 minutes or less. The problem is Water. It HURTS! I can feel it go down all the way. The best way I can describe the feeling is it feels like pouring water into a plastic cup with a tiny hole in the bottom. It all just stops and then I feel it slowly drain into my stomach and I don't understand why. Water is the only thing that does this to me. Why doesn't the Protein? I'm dehydrated and I need my water but I dread drinking it helppp. Anyone else have this problen?

to help get past the dehydration, maybe you should try some Gatorade g2 or Powerade sugar free. It would get your fluids in and help with hydration and might not have the same effect as Water.< /p>

Thank you!!! I followed your suggestion and got some powerade zeros. although it still hurts going down it is so much easier to drink and I was able to get a 32oz bottle down in a matter of a couple hours.

Glad I could help! It is all I drank my first few days. Since then I have it and ice Water. Hope things keep improving for you.
