I was told to drink 1.5lits of water???

Hello everyone, i am 5 days post-op and my doc told me to start drinking water.

1,5litres of water...

I drink slowly, but even then i do feel somewhat weird, and i need to drink so much more in a single day...

Just wanted to ask, how did you guys handle your 1st day drinking water post-op? And how much did your doctor tell you to drink?

Thanks in advance! [emoji6]

    64 oz. in small sips all day! Gotta stay hydrated. But it doesn’t have to be strictly water. You can added protein drink mixes, crystal light, broth or etc. The water is in there. Just stay away from sugary drinks and NO CARBONATED DRINKS.
