Proper hydration.

[Conager]

Are you getting it?

I like to think I do. I try not to drink my calories, so it's usually plain water. I don't do stimulants because I can't afford the drop off, which means I avoid diuretics.

I drink several 1/2 liter bottles of water a day. I used to be more eco-responsible and would refill these 3 liter bottles with filtered water. (Ithought they were gallon jugs for years, till I read the label, finally.) It was easier to keep track of my intake then.

 

[Ziggins]

I have a jug of solar tea brewing. Maybe the last gallon before I start drinking hot tea.

 

[Conager]

Tea is a bit diuretic, isn't it? Is there a rough calculation, like you need a bit more tea than plain water? I don't know if any of that is valid.

I remember that on one of the rare occasions that I was drinking I was looking at the label of an English beer that was 4% alcohol by volume and it suddenly puzzled me, "How do you get dehydrated drinking something that's 96% water?

I like to think of my jerky as all-natural, but I don't milk the soy and Worcestershire trees for those ingredients. Probably waaaaay too much sodium. I feel like I've been behind the curve playing catch up lately, and that's the only thing that is different. I'm making about four pounds of jerky a month.

Probably should just broil a nice steak.

 

[Aphroditiac]

No, because if I drank 8 litres of water a day as they suggest, I would need one of those cushion covered toilet seats because I would spend half my day peeing.

That's one of the last remaining advantages to being Male. It's so worth it.

You haven't really lived till you've hung it out over the rail of a haul truck at 6,420 feet plus 15 feet of deck on a crisp, Autumn night with a full moon and drained the main vein in a satisfying arc with a stiff breeze at your back.

"incels ~ activate!!! we have been triggered!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[Conager]

Wait.

8 LITRES?

I know we Americans are dumb about the metric system but that's seems like an awful lot of water isn't that over two gallons?

I thought it was eight "glasses."

I'm not sure how big a 'glass' is supposed to be, but mine don't hold a quart.

Now that I think about it ridiculous American soda cups are actually as much as 64 ounces which come to think of it as a half a gallon. Who needs a half a gallon of soda? This, by the way, is why Americans are world leaders in obesity.

I did read a article about hydration one time and it's clear that I'm doing it wrong. Apparently you're better off shipping a little bit overtime instead of charging a bunch when you feel thirsty. Also, I'm wrong about water, that milk or juice rehydrates better because the liquid stays in your system longer and has a better shot at absorption. Water goes right through you. Especially if you chug it.

I've fabulous kidneys, though.

I should sell one.

We are discussing peeing standing up and this makes you think of your involuntary celibacy? Why?

you're really bad at this.

 

[Conager]

True.

I have trouble with both the involuntary and the celibacy part.

I'm not a fan of celibacy, but promiscuity isn't that fulfilling for me. I cycle from voluntary celibacy to deciding I need to get laid. Celibacy is an actual choice. You people that think society is forcing it on you are weird. No offence intended.

definitely not as fulfilling as it was for your exwife.

 

[Conager]

Sick burn!

Do you often obsess about the sex lives of exes?

 

[schism666]

Sick burn!

Do you concern yourself with the sex lives of exes?

except your wife had a sex life outside of your marriage. that would concern me, yes, if i was married to the whore.

You seem to have a lot of anger issues.

Getting back to the thread topic: are you more hydrated since you gave up alcohol and switched to weed and "not abusing" meth on "the tweekends?"

i only anger when i realize people like you breathe the same air as me.

I'm drinking a vodka/tonic right now, never done meth, and have no idea what a tweekend is beside this.

so, again, you're bot level wrong, which is usually only accomplished by bot himself.

 

[Conager]

That's a lot of anger. That may be the reason for your lapse. . .

You should see someone about that. At a minimum, check in with your sponsor.

 

[schism666]

again, learn the words you use before vomiting inanity all over the place. there's no "anger" but just a little bit of pity and cheerfulness that i'm not you. <--- happy face

and the last sponsor i had was haro when I raced bmx years ago.

 

[Conager]

^seems pretty angry.

even if you had added an emoji, it'd still read pwetty angwy!

 

[Conager]

So to get this back on track, once again-

Perhaps less vodka, more tonic would be better for hydration?

 

[schism666]

as thirsty for attention as you've been since the great geebee purge, it makes sense that you would ask for hydration advice. fuckin' thirsty loser. think you'll make to 100 posts today?

 

[Biggs_Darklighter]

No, because if I drank 8 litres of water a day as they suggest, I would need one of those cushion covered toilet seats because I would spend half my day peeing.

Nobody says to drink 8 fucking liters a day.

 

[MissMandy86]

I try and drink a gallon .. dont always but .. its always close

 

[Ziggins]

Tea is a bit diabetic, isn't it? Is there a rough calculation, like you need a bit more tea than plain water? I don't know if any of that is valid.

Heavily sweetened tea would be a diabetic issue. My more immediate concern is caffeine giving me the runs, which would dehydrate. Decaffeinated tea only.

 

[neci]

a glass of water for every alcoholic beverage.

 

[silver gurl]

It 8- eight ounce glasses per day. Or so they said. 8 litres a day and I would never leave the bathroom

I have one cup of coffee in the morning.
1 iced cappuccino with low fat chocolate milk, no cream (it is, what it is)
3-4 litres of sparkling water per day. I like the grapefruit and wild berry.
Sometimes a hot chocolate or a tea at night.

No soda
No juice
No alcohol
