53 pounds lighter!!!

I'm 8 weeks post op i've lost 53 lbs....and I feel wonderful...i'm working out daily and taking my vitamins but the only problem im having is drinking enough water does anyone have any suggestions????

Corrina, Congrats on the weight loss, it's great. I try and mix things up and drink Crystal Light, Decaf Tea. Hope this helps, Loni

Congratulations! 53 pounds is great. I wish I was losing that fast. I can't stand water, but I love the Propel flavored waters. I drink 2 of those a day and the rest sugar free kool-aid. I like that a lot better than crystal light - it's not as sweet I think. Melissa

WOW.... great weight loss. You must be doing something right, girl. Keep on doing it. I use herbal teas / decaf coffee / crystal light / flavoured water. There are all kinds of options. The hard part is finding the time and not drinking with meals. You must be doing it right to have such a great weight loss in your first two months. I have a cousin in Vacaville, California who is considering this surgery. Are you near there? Any advice for her, in regards to finding a good surgeon? Karen RNY 12-15-04 294/249/???

Super job Corinna. I purchased two great containers at EMS. They are 32 oz each and they come in wonderful fun colors. I keep one at home and one at work and I sip, sip, sip all day and evening. I only drink water, I am staying away from the sf drinks as I don't like after taste. I miss my diet coke and my coffe but that is a small price to pay for this wonderful new life. You are doing such a great job losing. I am thankful daily that I decided to have WLS. Monica 330/289/???

The only way I can get in my water is to make decaf tea with splenda. I try to drink a gallon a day and most of the time manage. I can't stand plain water or any of the flavored crystal lights either. Congrats on your weightloss. I seem to be stuck at 45lbs lost haven't lost anything in a week oh well. I know this is normal will just keep trucking on.
