Saturday night's sleep:
Got to sleep around 5:30am. Woke up 11:30am-ish. Didn't get up.

Sunday's food:
Double-lolly :)
Pasta with tuna mayo.
(step back in amazement as Denny eats something healthy! by the way, I make huge portions of this stuff, so it's a pretty good meal for a day)

Sunday's drinks:
Don't remember. Not a lot, judging by lack of drinks containers around bedroom.

Remembered to take an Echinacea capsule and vitamin C.


Last night's sleep:
Got to sleep around 2am. Woke up around midday. Haven't really got up.

Today's food:
Half a pot of soup, half a dozen slices of bread.

Today's drinks:
Swigs of Orangina, Ribena and Oasis. Around half a litre in total, maybe.

Remembered to take an Echinacea capsule and vitamin C.


Okay, so we've established that I consistently drink far less than anyone who's expressed an interest here so far thinks I should. But I'm never particularly thirsty - how on earth can anyone want to drink 2 litres (of any liquid) a day??

If it is difficult to get up and get a drink or to go to the bathroom you will ignore the signals for longer and longer each time. Your body then becomes habituated to this pattern and doesn't bother sending the signals till a later point.

Yes, I mentioned a few days ago to someone that I was concerned this might be a possibility. Add my (ab)normal levels of laziness into the equation and I was probably doing this to some extent even before the accident - hence why I don't get hungry or thirsty for long periods.

Thanks for all the info you've been dropping in with... tis very helpful.
