Water struggles!

I am really having a hard time with water. When I drink it and it goes down, I feel nauseous. I can't drink plain water since surgery so I put CL in it. What can I do to get this water down? I think I'm getting dehydrated!

Have you tried drinking the water at different temps? What about drinking chicken broth instead?

Yes I've tried all different temps. I tried chicken broth today and didn't like it anymore! It's so frustrating!

It was really hard for me as well for about 8 weeks! It will get better, I promise. Try drinking differen****ers. I found that I can tolerate certain waters better than others. Also keep in mind that milk, low calorie juice, protein shakes, sf Popsicles, etc all count towards your liquid intake. Good luck and hang in there!

I've tried differen****ers and it's all the same. I'm going to try low cal juice! Thanks for the tip

Maybe try drinking some Gatorade or Poweraid if you think you're getting dehydrated. Can you drink warm tea? Try water with lemon see how that goes. I'm sorry you're having a tough time...so am I right now 

I try and drink Propel and yes I do drink warm tea! Hope you are doing good!

Do you like propel? I lived on the grape flavor during my pre op diet.

 

Sorry just saw your post. Do you make protein shakes with water? Or do you drink RTD shakes?

I do both for the shakes.  I'm starting not to be able to tolerate them now.

Early on, I was drinking 1/2 pure apple juice 1/2 water. That helped. I also have discovered peppermint tea, which soothes the tummy and stops the rumbles.

Good luck!
