Will water ever taste normal again??

Hi. So I'm almost two weeks out and still struggle with drinking water. I was wondering will water taste normal again or am I stuck with hating it? If it's the latter, I'd be so disappointed because I love water

Yes, it will. I was a lover of water before surgery and not so much immediately after surgery but I can say 7 months out I drink any where from 12-13 8oz glasses a day.  That's all I drink.

That's a relief! Do you know when it started to taste normal again?

I'm 9 months out and still can't drink our tap water or Dasani (other brands of bottled water are fine) but boiled or filtred water tastes just fine, and has since just a few weeks after surgery.

Try some Mio or Dasani drops in water.  Just a little helps me when I can't take the water straight  it does get better after a few months. 

What exactly is causing water to not taste normal?

I'm four months out and it's better now.  The only water I could tolerate straight up was Dasani.

I don't know what it is abou****er that makes it taste bad and not sit well in our sleeves.  About three months was when I started drinking plain water again but only purified ice water.  Spring water still is gross.

Evian water was all I could drink at first. Always room temperature. After 8 weeks I can drink water from our fridge but not the tap. I do like a little grape juice in my water. Just a tablespoon. Hang in there. I really only wan****er to drink. No cravings for my beloved Diet Coke.

Try the different flavors you can add to the water: Mio, Crystal Light, heck, even some powerded pink lemonade.  It's so important to get your fluids in during the early stage.

At least you can drink it.  Right after surgery water tasted normal to me but even the tiniest sip made me retch and throw up.  Thank god that went away but it took several months.
