What are you drinking your water out of???



Recommended Posts

Okay I'm getting the theme Water Water and more water. I'd like to know what you all are drinking your water out of?? Did you go out and buy a certain size reusable water botter? If so what brand ... from where?

I want to have something that is XYZ oz so I know ... okay I have to drink 3 of these a day. That way is MUCH easier for me... I drink water now but by the end of the day I usually have no clue how many liquids I've had.

Gotta get better at this counting everything routine.

You know EVERYONE says don't use a straw, but my doctor and I had agreed that if I can drink better from a straw and get the fluids down, then do so. . .and that is what i have done this past 2 years without any complications. . . i DONT used "special" knives, forks, spoons, plates, cups, that is a waste, just a straw. . i adjust to what i like without the extra expense. Good luck!

I have been drinking with a straw since week 4, not a big deal!!

I have one of those BIG hard, plastic starbucks cups with a lid and straw. I keep er' filled with ice, Water and Mio!!

Hope this helps!

I just drink out of a 16 oz glass at home, and put a tick mark in my food journal when I fill it up. In the car, I use bottled Water and just record however many oz. it is.

Mostly I do bottled Water (even filtering our tap water doesn't make it good). Sometimes I will use a 16 oz or 20 oz Tervis Tumbler if it is other than water, I love the lids and they are great to keep things cold/hot. Lifetime guarantee too!

Oh I love the Tervis tumblers...I have tons of them. That is what i use every day. It keeps my water/ice cold and no sweating glass all over my desk. I also use the lids with a straw in the car. You can get 16 oz or a 24 oz at Bed Bath and Beyond.

I use Rubbermaid bottles. You can get them in the grocery store by where the plastic containers are. Pre-op I drank out of 32 oz bottles, now I"m using the 20 oz and drink 3-4/day. I freeze them about 1/3 full of Water, so when I fill it with Water the next day the ice lasts a good while and keeps it cold. I actually have three in front of me right now - one with water, one with crystal light, and one with Isopure. They are dishwasher safe too.

I crochet little coozies for them so they won't sweat on my desk :)

here's a couple that I've made:

Kami ... very cute!!! My grandmother taught me how to crochet when I was younger but I couldn't begin to do it now. :-( The snuggies would serve a double purpise for me because it helps for me NOT see how much Water I have to go. :-)

I go by Sonic and get a 32 oz unsweet tea with XX ice and sip on it all day, then stop on the way home and get it refilled with ice and Water with a slice of lemon and lime, and sip on that the rest of the day. I don't finish either all the way, but oh well, close enough. Oh, and when I swallow air.........I burp. Problem solved.

I know KAMI- I have 4 of those rubber maid ones- I'd love to buy one of the covers you've made- nothing worse that a sweaty Water bottle- I"m always wrapping paper towels around mine

and fastening a rubber band around it. haha

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
