If I don't drink at least 120 ounces per day, I feel awful. I'm usually close to 200.

With low calorie- low carb diet with need minerals to retain water in our system. Instead of water - try salty chicken or beef broth.

Long term, once you are farther out, you may try pickles or pickle juice. Bubbies brabd are baturally pickled cucumbers - the pickle juicejnot inly has minerals but also natural probiotics. Once in a while ,- my body craves pickles. I often eat a lot of them, or drink diluted natural (not vinegar base ) pickle juice. The pickles (no sugar added brand-new Bubbies) are virtually "free calories" food. I can eat a 1/2 jar per day during time my body craves pickles. I often have 2-3 days like that every 2-4 weeks. Then I am goid.

In my area most stores have them in a refrigerated section. The have no preservatives added - no vinegar.

But most health food stores like WF, Trader Joe , etc - have those always.

64oz is your minimum, but you can always have more. Your body may need more. Drink to your heart's content
