nervousnelly719 67 Posted February 17, 2016 Did anyone drink this postop? I would think this would be a great liquid for after surgery .. Does anyone have any experience with this? Please share... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FrankyG 1,450 Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) Pedialyte is just sugar and salt Water. I make a homemade version when the family gets sick (there are tons of recipes out there). I would not drink it for after sleeve surgery because like 2goldengirl said, there's a whole lot of sugar in it (sugar can cause you to feel nausea and even trigger a dumping episode in the early days post-op... horrible and to be avoided). There are much better choices. Try regular Water, sugar free drink mixes, some teas like chamomile with no calorie sweetener, or Protein drinks.
