Struggling quite a bit over here. Even 64 oz of plain Water has been a reach for me. It's mostly a mental struggle. Pre surgery, I used to take in about 98 oz a day. I like to chug Water through. This sip sip sip thing annoys me. I always wind up getting distracted and not drinking for a couple hours here and there which really limits the amount of water I can take in. Tomorrow is going to be a long day though, so I'm going to start drinking early in the morning and set reminders on my phone! The more hours I am up, the more hours i have to drink lol

How far out from surgery are you?

I can't speak for everyone but by 6 months post op I could "chug" with the best of them.

Infused waters, water with enhancers for flavor and clearer teas count towards pure water count in this challenge also.

Hydration is the goal.

I would rather have everyone well hydrated by sustainable methods rather than struggle to drink plain water all day. Just add some plain water in too if you can handle it.

My goal for today: half of this in addition to the coffee , tea & pp shake I usually have. What are your daily goals?

Only little over a month out and nowhere near being able to "chug".
Not a fan of water enhancers. I like plain water. I just forget to drink it constantly.
I'm doing good today though

Doing good here. Getting my 5 bottles of Water in + decaff black coffee + green tea + matcha! Yum!

[GreenTealael 25,448]

I'm drinking more and using the restroom more as well, oh joy 😏

[FluffyChix 17,418]

I would like to be "drinking" more. But my doc kinda frowns on that! LOL.
