18 Days Out!!!!!

Okay so i went to see my doctor today for our usual weekly visits, and i am frustrated because he told me i was dehydrated, the problem is i hate drinking water, it hurts my tummy and it just tastes horrible. the good news is i have lost a total of 24lbs in 18 days.I have decided to drink water using crystal light because it's the only way i  can drink it, i didn't before because i was afraid of the citric acid. Also i have lost all my appetite and i barley eat, i struggle to even eat baby food or my protein shake. i am really afraid for my health so Today i realized i can't be as careless and iam going to step it up!

 I too struggled for the first couple of weeks in getting my water in.  I got pretty dehydrated, waking up in the morning to my eyes bburning from being dry.  My doctor gave me a stern talking to, told me to do whatever it took to get the liquids in, or he would see me in the hospital for an IV.  I stepped it up.  Try the Mio (or generic wal-mart version) of the water additives.  No calories and still good.  Experiment with temperatures as well.  

Try making protein shakes in half batches, then sit down and make yourself drink the half.  Switch to water and later make the other half.  

Step it up girl!  You can do it!  You don't want to end up in the hospital with an IV for fluids and nourishment!

Try finding MIO water flavouring. It rocks, and doesn't give heartburn like crystal light.

Have you tried the Walmart brand of water flavor packets?  I use the white grape which is very light, and the Kiwi strawberry.  They both come without color which I like cause they don't stain your teeth or clothes,  and they are not acidic. 
Good luck!

thanks for the tips! I really wanna stay away from hospitals so ill do whatever it takes.

Someone said somewhere you can change the taste of water post surgery by putting slices of peeled cucumber in it.   I don't know for them it helped them get the water down.   I don't know if it works cause I'm still presugery. 
Congratulations on your 24 lbs down!!!!   Try to stay hydrated it's very important.  Plus the weather is really hot now.  BTW, are you still in Dominican?
