    Default drinking water

    A question about drinking water after the healing period, when you are on normal foods. Can you drink more than a couple of ounces of water at a time or do you still have to sip constantly? What about people who do not have ready access to water except for every couple of hours or so? Any info would be appreciated...thanks

    Speaking from personal experience... You are going to want to have water handy. You can't just "catch up" on your hydration after gastric sleeve. I posted something very similar to this earlier today: http://www.gastricsleeve.com/forum/a...-hydrated.html

    I can drink much faster than I had hoped, which is good. I can finish a normal bottle of water in about 15 minutes. I am happy about that because I've always loved water. I love the crystal light tea powders added to the water! Three bottles of water in a day and you're good to go!

    I have to have my water bottle on hand but I'm only 9 days post-op so maybe that will change.

    WOW! Three bottles of water in a day! I'm impressed! I don't like water typically except right after I run and then it has to be ice cold! I make two 25 oz bottles (camelback) of iced tea with unflavored protein powder and fiber in them, however, I rarely get them both finished....something I am trying to work on.
    I learned the hard way....very early on...do not let yourself get thirsty..by then you are way behind on your fluids. I passed out in the shower..and spent the rest of the day in a chair feeling horrible!

    Drink as often as you can....I am trying to live by that same line!

    Good luck!
