Drinking Water

So I just realized today that I am drinking Water much better...but now I am worried to over do it. Did your surgeons suggest how much to sip and a period of time? Does it go right through the band or do we have to worry about stretching it? I am only 10 days out.

Thanks!

    I am drinking between 80-100oz per day. I was banded March 20th. Water won't stretch the pouch, so I drink as much as i want. I listen to my body though, just in case it's not going through the band fast enough. Also, start practicing not drinking within 30-45 minutes of eating, it will make the transition easier when you get to solids.
