Hot weather and dehydration

 Hi Katz51.  It is lovely, isn't it?

I'm tending to rely on extra cups of tea (4.30am this morning!). Before the ileostomy, water would've been my "go to" but I don't think that's recommended.  Since having to drink the dreaded Moviprep I've not been able to face orange squash or the like (anything with artificial sweeteners) as the taste is too similar. I sometimes have apple juice diluted half and half with water or Bottle Green do a cranberry and elderflower cordial which is nice. I probably never drank enough before the ileostomy anyhow so it's even more of a challenge now.

Any other suggestions would be very welcome.

Sending you both a virtual hug. It’s too hot for close contact. Very sticky here 

Have good days both 

Thanks for these suggestions, Ann. I'll definitely give them a go.

I hope that you're doing well. Seem to remember that you had a trip to Spain planned. Have a great time!
