Almost one year post op water



Recommended Posts

I will be a year post op in December and I am currently struggling with fluids. I was never a big Water drinker pre or post op during the fall/winter season. However, during spring and summer I do well on liquids. Now I am getting in an average 16 oz a day, I am still getting in my food but even that is getting skimpy. Any ideas on low calorie drinks (I don't like tea) and are Meal Replacements an option this far out?

I'm sorry but this sounds like no brainer - if you can drink physically in the spring and summer I don't understand why you need help this far out just because of a season change? I'm confused?

This sounds like a mind game. You have to drink or you will ruin your kidneys - do you want kidney failure, heart problems? I am serious.

@Lise2021

every morning i drink GNC/Total Lean

Shake (swiss chocolate) - helps get

my Protein for the day. (25 gr) 14 oz.

liquids! the crystal light is an old

but true good suggestion/idea.

gotta push yourself, you must!! easier

said than done. But do it, for me? lol !!

@Sosewsue61 - for me too, it's easier to drink

when the weather is warm -(referring to

different seasons) i am more thirsty.

@Lise2021 - drinking to your health!;)

good luck

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
