Topic: RE: HELP!!! Does anyone suffer from dry mouth

This is normal after having WLS...it just a reminder that u need to try ur best to get more water/liquids in. U could've been/be dehydrated. U will also notice that ur breath will have a foul scent or a nasty taste...this is also normal. Just ur way of knowing that ur body is changing as a result to...once again, having WLS...

U'll be just fine. Just get them liquids in and take it easy. U should realy consider coming over to BAF...there is a lot of info there... nothing & no one is here as u can see... ~

Hi Tamika, I have heard that that the YWCA, downtown across from the MLK Library has water aerobics. I know that the YMCA on Rhode Island Ave NW (downtown) has water aerobic classes. Check them both out and see what you can find. Oh! Results the gym (Capital Hill) has a wonderful gym with a pool, that I'm sure has water aerobic classes. Great atompshere I ad. I use to work out at Results on U street NW.
