Water

How long does it take to drink one bottle of water approx 16 oz?

At your stage, a very long time.  Keep on sipping!  Little sips as often as you can stand them, you will develop a rhythm.

And ask the doctor about the iron pill I take, Hemaplex.  Not a nasty taste, and they would probably break okay.  It includes some vitamins and has not caused any constipation. Hang in there, it will be a rough ride for a month or two but then it will get better.

Thanks you very much I will ask my Dr. about the hemaplex.

Hi there,    Don't worry it will time for quite a while; and you are doing fine if you keep working on it slowly but surely! How far post op are you? Best wishes, Judy R

It takes "for freakin ever"! I didnt even attempt to drink from a 16 oz water bottle.. I used a small 4 oz glass and filled it many times during the day just to feel like I accomplished something :) Slow sips... best of luck.. it will all fall into place soon.  I NEVER thought in a milion years that I'd be able to drink a whole 16 oz let alone 64+ in a day.
