Dehydration

Jun 10, 2014

This time next week I will be on my first full day after surgery. I am a little nervous, a little excited and a lot worried. Will I be able to stick to he diet plan? Will I get my exercise? Will I keep myself hydrated? Hydration has been on my mind lately and I don't know why.

As a big guy I sweat. Not just beads of perspiration but raindrops of perspiration. All of this sweating makes me wonder how much more water I will need to drink to stay hydrated post surgery. Maybe I'm obsessing needlessly but if I need to take in 64 oz of water a day, does that take in to account loss of water through perspiration? I'm sure that once some weight comes off I won't be the human furnace I am now and hopefully I won't sweat as much . Is perspiration an issue in regards to staying hydrated? Feel free to share your thoughts and thank you for your support.
