I have no pain, no nausea, but my biggest concern is that I am not drinking enough Fluid. I drank 20 fl oz today. Is that a good start or should I be drinking more. My fear is dehydrating

I was the same way, but I love good crunchy ice. I have been going to Sonic and getting a small cup of ice. Due to the small pieces it is easier for me to get my fluids in:)). Keep trying, you can do it!!

I'm holding it in, just nervous of over doing it the ice is a good idea ty.

Monday,Oct.26, 2015 was the day of my surgery too!

The doctor told me to work towards getting 64 oz. of Water daily. I downloaded the Bariatric Timer app. to my phone remind to eat and drink. It has been helpful.

Mine was Oct. 26. Remember your Protein Drinks as well. They help keep you hydrated. Tonight I'm having Unjury chicken Soup and it is fabulous. Eight ounces of Fluid plus Protein. Didn't think I could stand another sweet Protein Drink. Heard so many people rave about the soup so I finally tried it. I'm so glad I did!

Where can I find the Unjury chicken Soup?

[tamywill 10]

It is available on Amazon. You might find it at your hospital pharmacy-- hospital where you had/have your surgery.

I purchased it at a local ( non- chain) pharmacy. I was able to save shipping/handling charges.

I was an Oct 1st surgery and Water has been my biggest struggle. I'm fine during the week at my desk... on weekends is where I struggle. Running the kids around to and fro, I often forget to bring a bottle of Water with me. When I don't have enough water, I get constipated, which is a bad and painful thing.
