Since getting home from the hospital, almost eight weeks, I have used a 12 oz wide mouth sports type bottle. It is short and not so overwhelming. I would just sip from it all day and keep refilling it as needed.

I have a 16 oz water bottle and I sip on it all day and keep refilling as need. I am 14 days post op. It is the same way I do the Protein.< /p>

Its funny how smaller Water bottles go so much easier for me... for example I have a big 48oz one that I can barely get through half of in a day but if I carry my small 16oz bottle I refill it at least 2x a day without even thinking about it... I know it's a weird mental thing but it makes hitting the goal seem much more obtainable

I used the cups for 2 weeks after getting out for of hospital while I was still on just Protein Shakes. Now I have a 20 ounce Water bottle. I make sure I drink 1 before lunch, one before dinner and one after dinner. That way I know if I have fallen short or if I am doing good. Its easier for me to keep track. As for food, drinks, etc. I measure everything specifically. Hope this helps.

I still use them occasionaly after 3.5 weeks. For some reason it's easier for me to finish my liquids if I have them out in the little cups. I think I get overwhelmed with more than 12oz containers. I sure do miss chugging back 8oz in 5mins!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
