fluid intake

I am really horrible about getting my fluids in. I never have been good at it but I need to make it a priority. I have just finished my first 16 oz propel water. Better than I do most days.

Me too.. Kim!~
We need to work on this and some days are harder than others... but fluids are so important as well as protein and vitamins!!
I am praying for you and hope you get those fluids in today!

I am going to try so much harder. I am very lacking in my fluid intake ect. I think I just get bored and if I could just drink coffee all day I would be ok.  I just finished making a batch of the pumpkin sausage soup from the 5 day pouch test board. I love that stuff!! went to the store and got containers to freeze it in. I am the only one that eats it so need to freeze the leftovers and then figure which other one I want to make.
I am just running on "fumes" and I need to make Kim #1 priority instead of the last one to be taken care of.
I hope you are feeling a bit better today.
Kim

Yes Kim should be your first priority! If Kim isn't healthy how is she gonna take care of everyone else?? I was like you.. I hated plain water.. still do.. It would take me all day to get in one 20 oz.. then I discovered Crystal Light.. my saving grace lol Now I drink 8 to 10 20 oz bottles a day! NO JOKE! Granted I'm still pro op but I hope to still like Crystal Light post op too lol. Try it and see what happends doll.

I liked CL preop but not so much now. Just need to make it a habit.

Propel is my favorite!! Also...Water Sensations that you can buy at Target and add to the water...not quite as sweet. I am terrible at getting enough fluids in...propably never will get in the required amounts but I try to do better. I also like the WalMart flavor of Peach tea...it is good!!

Make KIM your #1......that is what you need to do...but I know the why's, etc......"just say NO!!"....love you!!

I just dont care for sweet drinks much. I love unsweet tea but really what happens is I just get busy and forget to drink. wish I could say the same about my eating!!!!
I know you know the "whys" I just cant say no.
well off to run to class then straight to work.ugh. I am looking into some other options. I think I am just getting a bit old for night shift work haha

and how is Pam doing? Enjoying the new computer?
