What tricks and tools have you found helpful for getting enough fluids?

Has anyone tried one of those pre-measuring "flasks" like this? https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Pourz-Plastic-Liquor-Flask/dp/B0774JQ541/ref=sxts_sxwds-bia-wc-p13n1_0?cv_ct_cx=perfect+pourz&dchild=1&keywords=perfect+pourz&pd_rd_i=B0774JQ541&pd_rd_r=ad13df2d-ba37-43fc-86bf-b7194fb4abf8&pd_rd_w=aGppM&pd_rd_wg=ZCgxu&pf_rd_p=1835a2a9-7ed8-48dc-ad07-fcd7527bd2bc&pf_rd_r=4YP5ZW5N6HMNGM5860FC&psc=1&qid=1606846879&sr=1-1-80ba0e26-a1cd-4e7b-87a0-a2ffae3a273c

I always had a water bottle on me and set a timer on my watch to remind me to drink.

I’d always drunk lots of water but after surgery I really struggled - it tasted odd & it didn’t interest me. So I’d eat watermelon (when I was able) to help boost my fluid intake. It’s 90% water. Strawberries, cantaloupe, oranges are also good sources of fluid. As are lettuce, celery & cucumber. All have very high water content.

You can’t really measure how much fluid you’ve had eating these things so I tried to keep my pee a light straw colour. I still struggle to get water in but I must be getting enough fluids with the addition of these other sources cause I pee all day & night! Lol.

I also keep a bottle of water next to my bed & have a couple of sips every time I wake which is often - usually to pee. And I sip from the bottle in my day at every traffic light. It all helps.

I make a point of always keeping a drink by me. Also I've used high protein soups quite a lot which I've been told I can count as liquids. I found it very hard at first to drink enough fluid, but it's getting easier.
