My greatest new discovery

I purchased a camelbak steel insulated drinking container. It is the greatest thing. I keep it with me all the time. It has a large mouth top that you can put ice in. I even take it to bed with me. THe ice stays all nite long and keeps the Water fresh all the time. It was a bit pricey but with the sip sip sip drink drink thing it has been a life saver to have this ice cold water at all times.

I bought a steel one; however it wasn't insulated, so I put it in an insulated container that I had for water bottles. I fill mine with filtered water about 1/2 way and put it in the freezer overnight, then add cold water in the morning, slip it into the insulated sleeve and it will stay cold all day, until about 9 at night - so over 12 hours. I paid $9.99 for mine at Target.

Hey all I'm home and exhausted!!!! Also my doctors nurse said she didn't think I was taking in enough liquids! How much should I be drinking a day? Its only been 4 days I thought I was drinking enough but apparently I need more. Ideas are much appreciated!!

64 oz of Fluid is what my surgeon recommended ... SF popsicles and ice cubes are a good way to get in liquids, propel Water, special k water ... sip sip sip or suck suck suck all day long. It's tough at first, but it will get easier.
