Countdown to the New Year Challenge

janiebeth

Well I did it - I drank 96 oz of water yesterday! Not so sure I can get that high again - I will shoot for at least 80 today.

I am having a bad morning....
we were told last night that they are very sure my father in law has terminal lung cancer - he's too sick to treat him (more results today to confirm diagnosis)

we ordered a new washer and dryer last night - front loaders I've been wanting for two years - was a bit freaked out at how expensive but was actually excited - well we measured and the depth is about 3 inches too big - and where they sit we can't do that so now I have to start over and the smaller version is out of stock until Feb - I am hoping to find maybe a floor model....

AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!

Sorry to ramble-going to drink away my sorrow with a big glass of water!

Boy do I feel whiney!

I"m so sorry to hear about your father in law. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Hang in there hun.. Janiebeth

unless your urine becomes as clear as the water you are drinking, you're doing just fine!

Go us, go us. woot!

What colour is urine meant to be?

Well it should be clear. The darker it is the more dehydrated you are. The more water you drink the lighter it will become.

I took some pills once to help with water retention before prom (like 100 years ago) and they turned my pee Green! It was from the coloring they added to the pills (they were blue). We're not talking a hint of green either. It was green green. no question about it.

Well it seems my Henle is fine in that case. I thought it was meant to be transparent but something threw me for a moment then. Eh nice, haha greens not that bad of a colour anyway.

Hopefully this week. :noway:
