When can I drink water?

Okay, thats not actually what I mean. When can I take a really delicious satisfying drink of Water and not have to wait another 20-30 minutes for my next drink? Just wondering.

Thanks,

Anna

Hey wannalise,

Glad to hear you made it home okay and are feeling better. After about 4 weeks my drinking

got back to normal.

Congrats and welcome to the losers bench.

Yay! Yeah, I've been surprised, but thats been the most upsetting part to me. I haven't eaten in a week and generally thats okay, but would kill for a GIANT drink of water!

Thanks all

Anna

Anna, I promise it will be soon. You were a little slower starting out of the gate with the fluids. On Day 5 I was getting 64oz a day which meant drinking constantly. You'll have your satisfying gulps before you know it.

Congrats on making it this far. I'm really glad to read that you're doing ok.

Anna,

I loved popcicles at that stage! Was easier than ice cubes/chips and really helped with the thirst issue. I am drinking decently now, if fact there are times I have to remind myself that I can't drink the entire glass at once : )
