Proof, if proof was needed

That I have increased my water intake during this hot weather...yes that's TWO ice cubes in my wine Spritzer !

On a more serious note though.. the recommended fluid intake is at least 10 glasses a day..more if you have been sweating a lot.
Signs that things aren't right are...
Not unrinating often when drinking often and dark..concentrated urine.
Sorry if you're eating!

Are you drinking more or not?
How do you take your fluids?
I like tea...hot is fine..helps to cool you down in fact, water with sugarfree squash and just good old water with ice and sometimes a slice of lemon

Yes I know Miss, I will try to do better Miss

I do feel thirsty sometimes, then I'll just have a few sips of something and carry on with what I was doing.

I aim to change my ways, x 100 times

I seem to drink more water when l go out for a meal. I don’t find any problem with drinking a whole litre jug of water.

Good girl!

You do realise that thirst is one if the LAST signs of dehydration don't you?
