I've drinken tough for like 5 days in a row before, but I'm going to Temptation (for the first time) for two weeks in September, and don't really plan on taking a day off, but slightly terrified of the hangovers that will undoubtedly happen daily. Just curious what everyone's hangover remedies are. Anybody have anything they swear by (besides immediately getting drunk again)? stories, advice, do's and don'ts... discuss
The key is to stay hydrated with water. I take ibprofurine at several intervals and the last couple of years I started taking those packets that you can get from wal-mart that you add to water that helps keep electrolytes in the system.
TTR Hangover Remedy #1: Wake up...start drinking. Look at boobs. We firmly believe hangovers occur when you stop drinking and the body starts to recover from the revelry. So don't stop drinking...just keep drinking until you get on the plane home...
Yeah I do 2 week stretches, but found it physically impossible to hit the booze hard every day of the week! Some days I'd drink more at the pool, then go easy in the bar at night; other days I'd go easy in the day, and drink heavily in the bar at night! The key is to keep merry, but not get so wasted you get a hangover. Drinking lots of soft drinks and water is vital. On the the few days I didn't stop drinking 11am - 3am, I found that the next morning my body physically rejected the thought of drinking again for a while. I found a great way to deal with hangovers was to dive into the quiet pool (freezing) and the shock would instantly remove the hangover. I'd then lie down on a lounger for a while with my cowboy hat over my face and have a snooze for an hour or so. On waking I was always ready to party again!
Drink water hard all day, even gatorade. Eat a burger before the grill closes. And drink a gatorade before bed. I actually take nuun tabs with me and add them to my waters. I actually got really dehydrated down there. Seems I thought soda would help, but unless its seltzer it doesn't. Who knew!? Lol Caffeine dehydrates. Just pace yourself and drink tons of fluids. You'll do fine.
I'm in the business so I'll add my .02... Now, while at TTR I did have a hangover beyond all cure, and I did spend a day in bed, because I didn't follow my own advice. On the other days though, I remembered what to do. - Drink a water for every drink. Water or seltzer/club soda/or gatorade - Make sure to eat. -Vitamins: C, Thiamin, b-6, b-12, b-2 (riboflavin) all help to replenish and recover. We have a vitamin called the 'hangover remedy' available at Earth Fare (organic grocery store) that works great. the brand is source naturals.
Milk Thistle helps a ton with hang overs! Take one tablet in the morning and at night before you go to bed.
Bottom line they suck the big one better off to keep drinking and deal with one big one when you get home why ruin the trip.
