Come on you guys it is Monday lets go back to and get some more just kidding. I am up this morning but I was on another board. Sorry for the neglect. I hope everyone had a great weekend. Have a great day and stay motivated. Phenom

Im here, Ive been reading post since 5:30 this morning. I am only two weeks out and have already battled dehydration and a viral infection. or rather I am still battling the infection and If I dont figure out how to get at least 40 ozs of fluid in a day I am gonna be dehydrated again. Any tips anyone.. It will be greatly appreciated I was doing well at first but I am hoping that the inection is why I cant get it all in. I was at the hospital day before yesterday getting hydrated and yesterday I still only managed about 25 ozs of water. TIPS TIPS TIPS I need TIPS Please LOL

Hey Holly, I had a real hard time with fluids at first. The thing that helped me the most was the sugar free popcicles. I could eat them real easy, no problems. That will help you get fluids in...and as they say, just carry a bottle of water around with you and sip, sip, sip.....Take care: Sandi

Hey Holly, I am a 9 months out and still don't get in enough fluids. I have been in the hospital 3 times for dehydration. I just can't seem to get down cold stuff. Hot stuff works for me. Coffee..........hot green tea. Decaf. with no sugar. I get burnt out on water and crystal light. And I can't have anything with milk or milk based products. So no protein shakes. I do the wheat bars. Good luck to ya. Amy

Hi Holly, I'm sorry you're having trouble with dehydration...it must be miserable. I'm not having trouble physically with liquids, but I do have trouble remembering to drink water on the weekends. However, during the wee****ep a 64 ounce jug on my desk and sip it all day long and am sure to fini**** by the end of the day so I at least have that much...it truly helps me keep track and I can sip and type at the same time because it is so big the straw is at mouth level, ha ha. I've heard some people have trouble with straws, but I haven't found that they are any different for me than not using them. Good luck! Jamey

Holly Popsicles still save me. Also I have started putting vanilla isopure in water and then disolving a orange or raspberry crystal light in it. Get both protein and fluids. No slimey tasting like the premixed bottles of isopure. Lipton diet green tea sits well in my pouch Good luck Gail

Hi everyone: I am anxiously awaiting Wednesday appointment with Dr. Davidson at Village Surgical. I will be scheduling my surgery date and I am soooo excited. Donna
