5 Days Post Hard Finishing A 16 Oz Bottle Water Help

[Jkmorris 0]

I feel that I'm starting the phase of dehydrating, my urine is starting to darken and have a slight smell to it. I don't feel thirsty or dehydrated yet but Im scared I'm not getting enough fluids for the first week. I try to have a bigger sip but my stomach won't allow me to swallow that much so I'm taking in a lot of very small sips but it's taking too long and I can't even finish this bottle yet.

If you're getting dehydrated, then you need to let the Dr. know. If you wait too long that could be dangerous. I know it is hard to drink right now, but the key is to sip all day long. You need to start early to get all your Fluid needs in. But, I think you need to call your Dr also. Good luck.

I'd let your doctor know. The first few days for me I would chew ice chips and popsicle. For some reason doing those things were just easier for me then sipping. Also try doing different temperatures.. Ice cold, hot tea, room temperature.... I have found that at different times different temperatures work better for me. Also, if you are allowed it try Jello. Those are all items that aren't "liquid" but count as fluids. Good luck!

_{Adding Crystal Light or Propel to Water can help a lot. Plain water is sometimes hard for me even 2,5 months out. I still use a lot of sugar free popsicles to bolster my liquids.< /sub>}

Try drinking some g2 gatorade it helps with the dehydration.

I still have difficulty getting Water down. I drink low calorie gatorade, water, light cranberry juice, Protein Drinks, and hot original tea, Decaf. Gatorade has a tendency to bother my stomach. Water also bothers my stomach. I just keep on drinking.

I drank one ounce every 15 minutes while I was up. I watched the clock and used a measuring cup as my pitcher and a shot glass or a one-ounce medicine cup as my drinking cup. It took the whole 15 minutes to finish the ounce because I had to take small sips, but breaking it down and measuring it helped me get in my 64 oz. every day until I could take bigger sips.
