Is there such a thing as too much water?
I am just over 2 months post-op. At first i thought there was no way i could ever get in 2 liters a day, especially with the 30 min before and after rule. But now i am doing 2 litres no problem, but would like to not constantly be drinking. Is it sufficient to JUST have 2 litres or should i keep going with as much as i can drink in one day?

It is possible bu****er intoxication takes a LOT of sipping. 2 litres is about 64 oz, which is what is recommended so I'd say you're doing great. It is fine to drink more than that if you want. If you're well hydrated and feeling good with 2 litres, that should be fine. Remember you take in water with your food as well. I generally aim for 2-3 litres of water a day.
