Quoted:
I go through spurts. Summertime it seems I go with Gatorade. The past couple months I was on a Powerade kick. Sounds familiar! But....I might be taking a long break from G-ade. I just did a colonoscopy prep this week, Gatorade and miralax mix. 64 ounces if it. Whew. |

Quoted:
Pedialite. And it comes in cool pops! Funny ! I called in sick one Monday from a little to much drinkin'. Went to my doctor that I had been going to for years. He walks in the room & looks at me & says .... Looks like you had to much fun over the weekend didn't you. Which I replied how can you tell.
He turns around & is gone for about 10 minutes & comes back with a doctors statement & a 6 pack of pedialite. Then he tells me to drinks those & if I'm not better by the next day to come back in. I'll tell ya ! That pedialite does the trick ! |

I do a fair amount of long distance bicycling. One day in '98 I was doing a century (100 miles) in the middle of july and decided, what the heck I'll try that power ade stuff for my ride. Nice cool 95F sunny day. It did not sit well with me. Around mile 75 I horked my guts out. I detoured 10 miles out of my way and reloaded with Gatorade. That was my one and only powerade experience. There won't be a second one.
eta: i buy gatorade powder and mix it about 2/3-strength. Works great. |
