I’ve looked into several apps that will help me remind myself to sip sip sip but what have y’all found that is the best? Seems like none want to log just 1 or 2 oz. and I’m only 2 days out.

I’ve been using Water Minder. I can set the three quick-access amounts so I’ve got an 11oz shake, a 14oz mason jar of water and 1oz bites of Jello. I’ll change it up as I move through typical liquid amounts.

Whatever you do, don't use the "Drink Water Reminder" app... it was just a whole bunch of ads

I have a "kitchen timer" ap that I am using to send an alert every 10 minutes for an ounce of Water. So I should be able to get 60 ounces of water in 12 hours, which allows me to take naps, etc. I am using a 16 ounce water bottle which I pour into a one ounce cup that a nurse gave to me. Every bottle, I log into myfitnesspal. I can sort of slug the one ounce of water already.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
