I do not understand. I am 8 weeks post op. I have lost almost 30 lbs!!!!

Before surgery I loved Water, I drank it all day, at least 640z. Now I hate it. I can not drink more than 80z or so. What is going on? I drink sugar free juice, tea, etc. but I can not get the water down. I just have no desire for it.

Can anyone explain/

Lots of people find their tastes change after surgery, but I don't think anyone really knows why. Don't worry too much, you don't need Water to be successful post-op. As long as you are getting your fluids in, it is all good :)

I use to be able to drink it room temperature all the time now I only like it if it's really cold. I was advised a lot of ppl are don't have the taste buds water the first few weeks then have a better tolerance later on...

I loved Water pre op. Now, it tastes like dirty socks. Cannot stomach any type except deja blu. You aren't alone.

Try getting some mio and adding a little flavor. Or, get some flavored water. That's the only way I can do it.

My dislike for it after post op annoyed me but it went away in month 3! Keep at it and hopefully yours will go away too

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
