sleevedrose 5 Posted February 1, 2018 Congrats! Water and vitamins! For me I was thirsty a lot but had problems with water intake! broth saved me it counted as my liquid intake as well as teas. I had a problem with Protein my body can’t tolerate the shakes so I opted for protein drinks instead of shakes. But always take your Vitamins and protonix if you get those when you’re sent home Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kakatlady612 1,053 Posted February 1, 2018 Try to bring home some of the iddie biddy mini medicine cups to start,out with your sip sips. I'm seeing a lot of people saying recently a baby sippy cup is useful.Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Topaz 300 Posted February 1, 2018 Congrats and best wishes on your upcoming surgery! I'm one week out and a sippy cup might work, but I've also found that a tervis-type lid that slides open only so much has really helped me sip sip sip. When I have a bottle of Water, it's too easy to take a bigger glug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
