It IS possible to drink too much Water, but 52 oz a day should not over do it.

i am drinking 70+ oz per day..........others are even higher

drinking will make you feel full and eventually you will p it out.

I've read that you should divide your weight by 2 and that's how many ounces of Water you should be drinking. So I'm 238 pounds so I should be drinking 119 ounces of water.

Just remember to SIP! I just recently realized that I still needed to do that so the Water will still flow out as it should.

<--drinking tons of Water here ... I was always a big Water drinker before being banded. I use to drink well over a gallon. I am up to about 64 ounces now. I do sometimes drink to I am full, I think because for some weird reason before being banded I like that 'full' water feeling, isn't that odd?

Anyway, I drink normally.. I am fully aware of not to 'guzzle' like a luniatic. Water will just stream through the band, however you have to be mindful when you have anything 'thicker' than water in you. Even yogurts or cottage cheese is considered thick and you would have to sip afterwards. I am still on liquidy mushy foods for another 2 weeks...

Ditto what Carolina said.

I drink approx 100-112 oz day. Makes a huge difference in how I feel.
