How in the world can you get 64oz of water in?

I was banded on 2/28 and had my first fill yesterday (3cc'). How can you get 64 oz's in? I can't seem to get, but half of that in a day and I know I need to get all of them. Any advice? I feel like I sip all day long already.

I sip Water pretty much constantly all day long to get it all in.

Something I learned in recent days- nothing replaces water. Even if it has water in it (coffee, tea, juice, etc) it doesn't replace plain old water. A little crystal light or Mio is the only flavored drink that is close to plain water.

Up until this past week, I drank a lot of crystal light and green tea thinking it was the same as water. Apparently it's not. I'm currently dealing with some kidney issues and the doc told me very specifically that "nothing can replace pure water" and 64oz of water needs to be actual water.

Just sharing my new found info :)

I also got filled to 3cc on Monday.....I have installed the "drink water" app on my android. It reminds me when its time for me to drink water. I have mine set for 8:00am-8:00pm, its the only way I can REMEMBER to drink my water. i have crystal light with 20 oz of water when i first wake up because its impossible to eat in the mornings now. Hope this helps.

I also put tagerine peels in my water through out the day, and cucumbers from time to time.
