Cold water obsessed



Recommended Posts

I've always been obsessed with cold Water and still am after surgery. I just worry I may be drinking too much. Is there such a thing?

Sent from my iPhone

I'm suppose to drink 4oz in a hour, but when it comes to cold Water I feel I could drink 4 oz in about 30 minutes. If you drinking no too fast you are fine. I'm avoiding dehydration.

I can't drink cold Water since surgery. Room temperature goes down much better for me.

Me, too! I loved, loved, loved Water before surgery and now is no different. I want to guzzle and chug it sooooo badly! Sounds amazing, really... *sigh*

Yes! I can only drink Water with ice in a cup and freezing cold. Room temp makes me nauseous! Been like that ever since surgery

I love cold water! It's the only thing i've been able to drink and enjoy post-op. My surgeon allows crystal light, any diet see through drinks, and even snapple. But i've tried all of them and they're way too sweet for my liking. So i just stick to my cold cold Water. Tastes great and no sweetness.

No, but do you think brand has something to do with it?

For me, brand is everything when it comes to Water. Dasani and Aquafina are terrible. Anything that's been filtered is terrible.

I LOVE Water, but only spring water like Zephyrhills or Fiji or even store brand, so long as it isn't "drinking water."

I drink so much I can definitely taste difference between types and brands.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
