1 week post op and sad

I very rarely drink plain water.  I was never really a water person before surgery so plain water was hard for me after, I usually add crystal light to my water and I have a serious hot tea addiction now also.

Dehydration is one of the 2 main things that gets people readmitted to the hospital post WLS... water is not an option. As people suggest Crystal Light, warm, cold, whatever works for you but get it in... now that being said... it's really really hard to get what Dr's say to get in... aim for a little more each day. Don't be hard on yourself... it's new, it's big changes, you have a bunch of drugs in your system, chill ;) 

In a few weeks... a new normal will take hold. In a few months... cloud 9 :) day at a time...

Best, Shelly
