if you track your water intake
regular, although I sometimes try to drink decaf later in the day.
the two issues are connected: one of the reasons I don't drink enough water is I'm always drinking coffee.

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.
PM me if you are interested in either of these.

Kind of gives new meaning to the expression "dry humping" doesn't it?

Same here as Vicky - more hungry and more tired.
Honestly, at 9 months out, fluid intake is still hard for me. My sleeve feels funky if I drink within 45 minutes of eating. An hour is even better. But I have to eat often to get my calories, so my fluid intake suffers. Plus, I've never been a big drinker. I just don't love to drink (unless it's alcohol lol). Thank goodness I'm so gung-ho about getting in my protein shakes or else I'd be so dehydrated it wouldn't even be funny.

for the first 6 months or so I drank syntrax nectars every day to make sure I got in both water & protein - I really only hate small bites of anything else.
no way I could understand those peeps who got their protein in from food - I just couldn't have done it.

I am more hungry and I get a bit constipated. I also wake up with dry mouth and chapped lips and I hate that.
I drink about 80-100 oz. during the summer and 64-80 in the winter. (Well, when I'm being good to myself anyway.)
