So I've been having dihareea so I heard Gatorade was good, I couldn't find sugar free Gatorade, is it okay to consume Gatorade with sugar? I heard if you dilute it, it could help? Shall I stay away from it, will it decrease my weight loss?

Should I drink it or no?

Yeah my country doesn't have a lot of choices, but I'm surprised they didn't have sugar free, I didn't look my dad did. I told him to look for sugar free Gatorade maybe he didn't look hard enough? Idk! But shall I stay away from it? Or would 1/2 cup a day not hurt

Try PowerAide Zero if you can find it. Otherwise just go with Gatorade to help for now. I wouldn't drink it on a regular basis but sometimes you need to step outside the rules a little to get healthy.

It's the only thing I have been able to get down since surgery and has helped a lot to recover I say drink it!

What you want is Powerade Zero or G2. However, if you are only a couple of days out from surgery, the extra calories from full-sugar Gatorade will only help, not hurt. Just don't make a habit of it! And do dilute it with Water, 50/50. My nutritionist told me I was allowed to have juice, gatorade, Vitamin water, etc. in the first few days post-op as long as I mixed it with water.

I agree with others here. Also you could try to find Pedialyte

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
