Summer time is a great time to be out doors. We spend time outside playing, working out, going to the lake or beach, hanging out by the pool and even working in the yard. If you are not careful it is very easy to get dehydrated.  During the day we lose water in many different ways. We lose water just by breathing. We also lose water when we go to the restroom and when we sweat. We lose water even faster when it’s hot or when we exercise. 

Here are signs you are dehydrated:
Little or no urine.
Urine that is darker than usual or cloudy.
Dry mouth.
Sleepiness or fatigue.
Extreme thirst.
Headache.
Confusion.
Dizziness or light headed.
No tears when crying.

If you have these symptoms you may be dehydrated so grab a glass of good ol’ water!!! Tomorrow I will post ways to prevent dehydration. Check back but in the mean time be drinking plenty of water!!!!!
