How are you getting all the water in?

I am having so much trouble getting all my water in. While trying to get in 5 small meals a day and not drinking with meals, time is limited to get in the water. How are you all doing it??

I still don't get it all in. : (

Neither do i. I struggle.

I drank from the time I woke up till the minute I fell asleep. I kind of set mini goals, too....16oz before I went to work. Another 16 oz before lunch, another 16oz before the end of the workday and the last 16oz before going to bed. I Kept a easy-to-sip-from bottle with me at all times and grabbed it every chance I had. It was a full time job and I was really sick of HAVING to drink all the time, but I just kept doing it. I got my 64oz fluids in everyday but it was WORK. It finally got easier after 3-4 months. Some people have set an alarm on their phones or watches to take a sip every 5-10 minutes. My drinking/eating restrictions were nothing 5 min before or 45 min after. Maybe this was easier than the typical 30 min/30 min. ???

It's an all day long thing, I've been getting in between 4 & 5 8oz glasses. I'm drinking the premier protein and only get two (30g protein) in. But I have got a cup of creamy soup and a cream of wheat in and I'm stuffed!! 11 days post-op.
