    I have a 16 oz water bottle and I sip on it all day and keep refilling as need. I am 14 days post op. It is the same way I do the protein.

    Its funny how smaller water bottles go so much easier for me... for example I have a big 48oz one that I can barely get through half of in a day but if I carry my small 16oz bottle I refill it at leas

Since getting home from the hospital, almost eight weeks, I have used a 12 oz wide mouth sports type bottle. It is short and not so overwhelming. I would just sip from it all day and keep refilling it as needed.

Its funny how smaller water bottles go so much easier for me... for example I have a big 48oz one that I can barely get through half of in a day but if I carry my small 16oz bottle I refill it at least 2x a day without even thinking about it... I know it's a weird mental thing but it makes hitting the goal seem much more obtainable

I used the cups for 2 weeks after getting out for of hospital while I was still on just protein shakes. Now I have a 20 ounce water bottle. I make sure I drink 1 before lunch, one before dinner and one after dinner. That way I know if I have fallen short or if I am doing good. Its easier for me to keep track. As for food, drinks, etc. I measure everything specifically. Hope this helps.

I still use them occasionaly after 3.5 weeks. For some reason it's easier for me to finish my liquids if I have them out in the little cups. I think I get overwhelmed with more than 12oz containers. I sure do miss chugging back 8oz in 5mins!

Omgosh im 6 weeks today I drink from a 16.9 Water Bottle I really don't know how y'all do it but I have a Hard time getting 64ozs down!! It's very frustrating am at most time drinking 3 of the 4!! I get WATER LOGGED!! (even w/ SF pops & Jello) i get ughhhhh!! Si if u can get it down I'm soooo Happy for You!!!

I am still using the cups from the hospital. I measure all things.

I am one week out and I use the 16 oz Tervis cups for my liquids and I use a blender cup for my shakes. I alternate one cold cup of liquids in the Tervis and then my refill I do a decaf tea for the warm drink.
