Problems with SF drinks



Recommended Posts

Really strugfling with liquids...8 days out, and its all I can do to hit 55-60 grams.I have several sf drink mixes etc that taste ok, the problem is they make me very nauseated. I had the same issue with my band. Its been a lifelong issue. Same thing with Water...I can drink a lil, but a lot makes me sick. Had issues when I played ball.

Right now the only thing I can hack is Diet Lipton Green Tea...and its iffy...

What to do? Pop is definitely not an option, an I am fine with that. My PA did not want me drinking juices, kool aid or hi c...

Anyone else had this issue?

Have you tried just soaking fruit in your Water? With a piece of fresh ginger for nausea? Like a gallon pitcher, filled with Water, then chilled with sliced strawberries and oranges and a 2in piece of peeled fresh ginger sliced? Ginger is a natural nausea remedy, and maybe you need flavor without the sugary taste. Hint Water also has this taste

I wish I could just have gatorade or something....think that might also help with general lack of energy.

Try g2. 45 call in 20oz so cute it with Water. It was the only thing that worked for me right after. Now I do infused Water, all types of loose tea, and Vitamin water 0.

What about herbal teas? There are some wonderful flavors made by Yogi. My favorite right now is cranberry spice. I have actually found that drinking flavored waters slowed my weight loss. I'm not sure why, but as soon as I switched to plain Water and herbal teas exclusively, the weight has been falling off.

I drink a *little*regular Gatorade (usually diluted with some water) every now & then. I have restless leg syndrome so my dr suggested it to help with the leg cramps get bad. I don't drink more than 4-6 oz though cause it can cause tummy problems

I feel the same way. We need *a few* calories.

I still use zofran occasionally. Just takes the edge off

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
