Water

Is it just me, or does water just not taste good anymore?? I used to love water before my WLS, but now it seems to make me nauseous if I drink a lot of it. I don't like the flavored water either, so I've been sticking with SF Kool-Aid, Crystal Light or juice. Even then, it's really hard to get in 64 ounces of fluids daily.

I agree completely. It's hard for me to drink plain water. It doesn't taste the same to me either. So I've been doing kool-aid with splenda and sugar free juices. My doctor wants me at 128 ounces of fluids daily. I barely make 64. Maybe it will come with some time. Take care! Keke

I struggle everyday. Water makes me feel awful. I use to be able to drink it. I have a big tumbler and I sip on warm decaf tea all day. I always get 48 oz and then by the time you add all the other stuff that is liquids I'm making it. Jane

I am 5 weeks out and I have experienced the same thing until about 2 days ago and now it's getting better. I think it has something to do with Ketosis (losing fat). It will change and things will go back to tasting good again. Fran

I was having a hard time getting enough fluids water was the worst but I started drinking fruit2o and aquafina has some wonderful flavored water so I have been doing better. Marcey 255/230/150

I thought it was just me that thought it tasted weird. I used to drink about 128 oz a day and now I'm lucky if I can get in 32 oz a day... that really bugs me!

ME TOO! I used to drink 2-3 gallons of water a day. Now it makes me nausious. Debra 392/340/180

I have been taking my water and putting it in a glass...for some reason i can drink more then in a bottle...and then I add a sweet n low and a lemon...and it tastes better to me then plain

I also found I can drink more from a glass!

I really can't stomach (literally) plain old tap water any more. And, I also used to be a large consumer. I have to put it through my Brita now, and then it seems to go down OK. I am drinking a lot of decaf coffee and tea, too, and some Crystal Light (although, even watered down to one container of powder per gallon of water), it's still too sweet for me. I like the Propel Melon, and I mix one with the same amount of water a few days a week. Warm things continue to feel better to me, although, by now, it could be a weather influence, also.
