Suggestions on getting the recommended water



Recommended Posts

I am having trouble getting in the 64oz of Water that is suggested by my Dr. I have to wait 30 minutes after drinking before eating and 1 hour after eating before drinking. I was told to sip on my water and not to gulp. How do you guys do it? I have only been able to do 2 to 3 16.9 oz botte per day.

Thanks in

I don't eat Breakfast if I do it is a yogurt about 10:00

8:00 - 10:00am 2 - 12 OZ DECAFS

10 - 11:30 24 OZ Water OR CRYSTAL LITE IN THE MORNING (done by 11:30)

12:00 - lunch

1:30 - 5:00 48 0z Water or crystal lite

5:30 - 16 oz water with work out

7:00 - super

9:00 usually take a 16 oz bottle and sip on it and take it to bed (i get so thirsty at night) drink about 8 oz by morning.

I Try to get at least 100 oz a day, but I always get at least 64.

I find it more important to not drink after a meal than before.

When I first started i had to force 64 oz down, A few months ago I was fighting hunger between meals but did feel like I needed a fill so my Nut. suggested more water. They say it has nothing to do with weight loss but mine sure picked up when I increased my water, altho... it could be many things.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
