WATER consuming enough - hard for me

[Oregondaisy 2,021]

It is so weird for me, since before coming off my PPI, I drank ALOT of

water. Now it just feels so strange going down.

I?ve always been one to drink close to 1 gallon of pure Water a day, so my mind is going crazy trying to just sip. I had to find other ways to add more Water to my diet. I drink about 3.5 16oz bottles of water a day and try to eat about two large glasses of sonic ice.

It works for me.:thumbup:

Will we ever be able to glug glug Water again? Sometimes there's nothing so satisfying on a hot summer day as chugging an icy water. Never again?

When I have my surgery I will put ginger root in my water, to give it a refreshing sharpness and to take care of nausea.

On the east coast we have the southern iinspired iced tea drinker. On the west coast we have the Asian inspired ginger spiked Water drinker. On the southern coast we have the Sonic ice eater. Anybody from the north (Michigan or Lake Erie coast?)have a recipe for easily downable Water?

Is this a great website or what?

Globetrotter - where do you get the ginger root and is it powdered form or an actual root - and how does it make the Water taste?

You can usually get ginger root in the vegetable section of a good grocery store but it's not important that it be the root, I just like it. I've suffered from a delicate stomach all my life; curvy roads, airplanes, cartwheels!! In my job now I have to fly a LOT and do so in really rough conditions so I had to look into all the ways to cure nausea. Typical pills and Patches do zip for me so I looked in the other direction and discovered that ginger has been a cure for nausea for thousands of years. You can get Reed's Ginger Chews, which are an all natural chewy candy, or crystalized ginger pieces, or pure ginger tea bags or the root itself. soak it, make a "concentrate" keep it icy cold and you have a sharp, spicy, refreshing drink that also keeps your tummy happy and nausea a thing o the past! =)
