Suggestions For Drinking Your Water Everyday.



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone how are you doing?confused.gif

I have a suggestion for drinking more Water. After 3 ½ years, I found that some days I really was forgetting to drink all the water that I needed to drink each day so that my body would function like it should. It is so imperative to drink all your water each day.applause.gif

I don’t think you recognize all of the problems that dehydration can case you. Here are just a few: Dehydration can lead to nausea, vomiting, weakness. You can get into a vicious cycle with the loss of fluids, as the more dehydrated you get, the less you may be able to take by mouth. This may require hospitalization so that Intravenous hydration can be provided. On the scope of importance fluids are #1. It is very important not to fall behind on fluids. dancing.gif

I stopped and thought if I had my water with me all the time and saw it sitting there, I would drink more & for me that is just what I have been doing these last few weeks. I purchased 4 really nice Tumbles. The tumbler is double walled, 22 oz. acrylic BPA free with a silicone seal on the twist off lid & to help prevent leaks. It also has an acrylic straw. This is such a great tumbler. If you want to know where I purchased it On Line it was QVC. I fill mine with water and have been mixing all kinds of flavors of Crystal Light. These tumblers are for cold drinks only. I enjoy them because I get NO condensation as the tumbler sits. So for me it has really helped me to keep drinking water all day long. Plain water works great too. heart.gif

You have to find what works best for you. I do understand how very hard it is after you first have had your weight loss surgery to drink all the water. It is difficult to get all the liquids down and the Protein too. I just want you to try to do the best you can. It really is like having a job & you have to work at it. If you have it with you all the time, it makes it a little easier to accomplish drinking your water.heehee.gif

Hugs,

Suzanne

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
