Hi there

I was not suggesting that she tried the 5 day pouch test, as I am not qualified to do so, but someone else asked what it was and thats why I posted it in the this forum .

Hi Gail, I struggle with water in the cold months as well, so Im a caffeine addict like you. There will be people that say you shouldnt have too much coffee - but if its the only way to get the fluids in, then I'm all for it.

Hi Tes, I should know better I know but does tea & coffee count instead os water I HATE! water or cold drinks in the winter months. Gail

Tea and coffee can count towards your fluids, but they are classed as a diuretic and can actually contribute to dehydration. At the moment with being on half term I am only drinking milky coffees and very little else fluid wise. At least at college I do have 1.5 litres of squash/water. Its hard trying to fit it all in - will have to revert back to my sugar free vimto me thinks 8O{
