Hello everyone!! I had my sleeve June 12th, been doing good, following meal plan and all however I am still struggling with my Water intake. I have been losing about a pound a day however yesterday and today I gained a pound. There are no changes in my meal intake, is this normal?

Be still and know it will happen! :D

Thx for the responses - I for some reason am hardly ever thirsty - you think bad Water intake may be contributing to weight gain? I know a pound or two isn’t a big deal because it will come off but I guess I’m trying to connect it to Fluid intake so I can force myself to drink more.

Your body really needs that Water to convert fat into energy.

Absolutely normal. Weight is never a "stable" thing but fluctuates depending on your bowel movements, Water intake, sodium intake, etc. I wouldn't worry.

@Sirena2020 Lack of thirst is actually a sign of dehydration. 20-30oz/day is really only 3-4 cups, not enough. Drink-drink-drink

      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.

      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.
