Question - can I get sick from drinking regular Vitamin Water?



Recommended Posts

Hi I'm 4 days post op and I messed up. I purchased Vitamin zero but regular Vitamin Water was on the same shelf and I picked that one up too. I didn't realize t until after I drank it. Can something bad happen. I didn't get sick from it.

Hi, no don't think so. If you didn't get sick I wouldn't worry about it. There is a Protein Drink called Isopure, it comes in a lot of different flavors. No sugar, 40g Protein, 20oz bottle, it's really good, no after taste. Blue Raspberry is my favorite. I was about 4 weeks out when I had a craving for a Clementine, so I ate about 3/4 of a small one and OMG I thought I was going to die for hours! So that's what you call a mistake....don't do that! Lol Good Luck

Yes I know that. I accidentally drank it thinking it was zero. That'a why I posted the question. I was wondering if anything can happen.

Dumping can happen

Vitaminwater is High in liquid Sugar, and May Contain Just as Much Fructose as Coca-Cola. One 20 oz (591 ml) bottle of Vitaminwater contains about 120 calories and 32 grams of sugar, just about 50% less than a regular Coke. However, it differs between countries which “type” of sugar is used.

After RNY gastric bypass surgery the part of your stomach that processes sugars and fats can be cut away. Therefore consuming sugar can produce dumping. Not all people are affected the same way by the surgery so that may account for your lack of dumping.

I made this mistake too! I was lucky enough to catch it before I drank it, but not before I wasted the money on it :(

      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.
