Hey, everyone! I'm officially one month out from being sleeved and while I'm doing well, I seem to struggle with the size of my sips of Water and tea. I try to take small ones, but it doesn't seem small enough. However, I found a water bottle that forces me to take the perfect sized sips!
It's called the Rubbermaid Chug Bottle (which is VERY misleading) and comes in 30 and 20 oz sizes.
I used to use the camelbacks, but in addition to getting just plain gross, they also involve straws which are a no-no.
I treat the opening of the Rubbermaid bottle like a straw in a way, sipping from the spout. I get very little in my mouth this way, but it's really perfect. I've stopped getting nauseated from my big sips!
The large size bottle was around $8 at my local grocery store and cleans easily in my sink or dishwasher, so I'm not really worried about the gunk like what formed in my old CamelBack.
Anyway, just thought I'd pass this along. You can see it online at the link below!
Hope this helps some of you with the same problem! My stomach has been thanking me all day.

Side note: I'm a law student. I have no affiliation with this product. I just know it saves me from being REALLY uncomfortable during 2 hr lectures!
