Cocodoll45 0 Posted September 1, 2018 Hello my name is Cocodoll45. I am 14 days post op of gastric bypass. I been having such a hard post surgery journey. I can't drink anything to much. The Protein Shakes and Gatorade are too sweet. Water I'm barely getting this down. I'm always weak and tired. I'm feeling like I made a mistake by getting this done. Please help me with other options I can do to get more fluids in please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MargoCL 677 Posted September 1, 2018 In the beginning I found the same problem with Protein Shakes and Water. I relied on homemade Bone Broth Soups. chicken bone broth was my #1 friend. And I learned to force myself to drink the shakes for fear of future Hair loss. 1 NH Dee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NH Dee 8 Posted September 1, 2018 I as well am about the same time frame out and experienced the same thing. Today I actually finally started feeling better. Big difference for me was making sure I do not eat 30 minutes after I drink and then don't drink for 30 minutes after I eat. Md also gave me mess to help prevent muscle spasms which is a life saver.
