Help Not getting enough fluids.



Recommended Posts

It was for me -- I got the sleeve. It was on my liquid diet itinerary that started when I was still in the hospital.. As long as it is a "clear liquid" with no sugar and without carbonation, then it should be good. Gatorade Zero is considered "clear" even though they put dyes in it.

From everything I've read, yes it is. Gatorade Zero, Powerade Zero, anything like that should be just fine.

Herbal teas & decaffeinated green tea are also great. Dilute your shakes too. I found it made them easier to drink & further upped my Fluid intake. Don’t worry if you don’t hit your fluid goal every day - as long as you’re in the ball park. You will get more in as you progress. Mind you, I was a big Water drinker before surgery & I struggle every day to get close to goal 15mnths out.
