I never put it together that way, but yes, I would have to say just thinking of water makes me feel repulsed sometimes. The last time I had to drink that stuff was in May...after 6 hours, drinking 1 glass every 10 minutes, I started vomitting(progectile!) instead of having bm's...I suspected, but I knew for sure when that happened thatmy adhesions were back an causing parial obstructions. I also had an incident a few months ago, where I threw up after just drinking water in the morning. I haven't drank juice or milk in a couple years.
I find hot tea different...it's very soothing to me, and because I drink only herbal teas, I can drink them throughout the day. Cellestial seasonings has a Tummy Mint Tea, Sleepytime and Chammomille...these all help me burp('scuse me).
Balanced(like Ensure), makes me want to gag sometimes, but I have to drink it...without it I would not get enough nutrition and calories.
Hope this helps...
Love,
Janet
