The importance of Water



Recommended Posts

I havnt drank any Water since I came back (11 days banded)

I drink grape juice, milk and Protein shakes (gross) and tomatoe Soup with Water like every day from dixie cups.

I also have the popcycles and some Jello and flinstone Vitamins and my pain pills and

If I had to drink water, it would cut down on the yummy juice I can drink...

Grape Juice is keeping me sane right now.. lol

I assume later I will be able to impliment a water regime....

I know its important.

Yes, but carbonated Water seems to be a problem, there was a thread...it's under food also and called "Can U Feel the Love" by I'll Succeed. There is a carbonation conversation in there, if I'm not mistaken. Hope that helps. Happy researching!

just got your edit...in my opinion, and as you can see I'm not banded yet, cranberry juice should be fine, you may need to Water it down, especially after first getting banded, and maybe after fills. Keep researching though, I'm no expert yet!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
