8 weeks Po VSG. Only getting about 4 glasses of water in. I feel nauseous when I drink water? Drinking too fast maybe? I don't know how to make it to 8?

  All things in good time!

Oh, gosh. Sorry to hear that. What does your surgeons office say? It may be you're drinking too fast. Keep us posted.

Have you tried adding fruit or crystal light?  It helps me.  Plain water is still hard for me.

Try making small sips throughout the day.  Instead of drinking all at one time, stretch it out throughout the day with sips.

You're feeling nauseous because you're dehydrated, because you're not drinking enough.  It's a vicious circle, and will continue until you change things.  These other suggestions are good ones.  Sip all day, don't try to drink a glass.  Try different flavors and even temperatures, but you've got to drink 64oz as a minimum every day, no excuses.  Just do it one way or another.
