When I first had my pouch and was released from the hospital I was told to drink.  I also had the loop ileo at the time.  Well.  Needless to say by me not listening two days out I passed out black and blued the side of my face and it put me in the hospital for another 17 days!  

Even now that that is all over with I live in a hot state and minimum I drink 6 bottles a day.  Today was 100 degrees.  I can down a whole bottle at once and still need more.  So I lost count today.  I work outside.  Not in direct sunlight but outside nonetheless.  I can tell by the way I feel if I am getting dehydrated.  After three years with no colon my body has certain signs I recognize. 

But like Scott said.  All depends on the individual.

Richard. 

what are your signs?
