Drink your water!!!
Hey gang!
I just was thinking of a topic I could post to help us all out. My biggest challenge with my RNY is staying hydrated. So I wanted to remind you all to keep a bottle of water with you and plan ahead when you go out in the heat this summer. (providing we ever get sunshine and heat!) :)
Bottle water and sugar free flavor packets are great things to keep on hand. Protein can be added easily with the "bullet" type fruit flavors for the newbies that are trying to get your level of protein up. It never hurts to give your protein a boost when you are doing more activity in the heat as well. Sometimes the protein shakes aren't as easily available in the heat.
Dehydration sets in quickly and is hard to bounce back when you get behind on fluids. Rummage sales and car shows, gardening and walking trails.... things like that will get you dehydrated before you realize it. So always keep a water bottle on hand and sip, sip, sip!!!
I hope you are all out and about enjoying the summer!!!
