HOT WEATHER Reminder

Just a quick reminder (to myself of course!) that we all need to stay on top of our hydration with the hot weather upon us! Because of the loss of water in our food (from a changed diet) tha****er, etc is more important than ever for us. T.

Thanks for the reminder! A good saying: "When you pass a sink, take a drink!" paula

I failed Hydration 101 yesterday miserably. Somebody say "Bad WLS Patient!!!" I had nothing to drin****il 2pm and man I sucked that ice tea down like a sponge- I was feeling shaky and weak by then- and it was just pure stupidity and poor planning that did it to me- work work work running around- I was all over the map and driving from Colchester all the way up to Newington to see patients. I didn't stop until 2pm for lunch and I hadn't packed anything that morning in the car. BAD ME Next weekend I promise i will take water in the car with me, okay????? On top of that I have a cold and took a decongestant which dried me out even more. I rehydrated but it took awhile to get back to feeling right- after my hospitalization I am still having to be careful and get in a good amount of fluids and nourishment a day and I didn't yesterday- now I am feeling it....

"Bad WLS Patient!!!!!!!!! " Gonna have to get you a lunch box with water and food and and chain it to your ankle !! Will forgive you this time but don't let it happen again! Feel better now?

Yes I actually had to nap today too- first time in a long time I felt this crappy. Chaining it to my ankle is a good idea- I tend to run out the door without my head half the time- maybe if its tied to me I'll not forget it!!!
