Getting Water In

[hayleyf3706 150]

Hey guys. So I'm getting a little overwhelmed about getting all my fluids in. I just don't know how much I can drink at a time, plus I'm in puréed so I need to eat. Do you think a sip every few minutes is okay?

Getting Water in should be your number one priority. Good you are in puree but doesn't matter if you get dehydrated. Keep drinking all day long. Even at 6.5 mths out, I always have water handy. The more water, the more weightloss too. It helps carry the toxins and fat out of your body.

Right. Just curious how quickly we can drink. Do you sip every few minutes?

Yes you should be getting in 30ml every 15 minutes right now! So sips every few minutes is perfect and you need to get in at leastv64 oz per day!

Drank pretty quickly from day 3. My program said as long as you don't "guzzle" it, and there is no pain involved, drink as you wish. I just drink 8 oz at a time. Not really a sipper here.

In the beginning I took a sip ever minute or so.

Now I just guzzle 8 to 16 ounces randomly.

11 days out I sip constantly. I set my timer for 30 minutes after Breakfast, fill up my 20 oz water bottle and sip sip sip. When I get that down, set that timer again, have my next "meal", when it goes off and when I'm finished the timer goes back on. I do this all day from the minute I get up till I go to bed. I basically spend my whole day drinking Water or my Protein Shake. Would love to get a nap in once in a while but no time!

Ice quickly became my saving grace.

Why?

[jccanada 314]

I was able to suck on and eat ice all the time. It was much easier than drinking and helped get fluids in.

Its hard to get it in for me as well. Between Protein Drinks eating and getting in Water I feel like I'm always consuming something. I average 2 16oz bottles daily.
