Should I use a straw?

Would using a straw help to avoid gulping water down? I am trying to get as much prepared as I can prior to surgery and I see that gulping water might be a problem for me since I currently drink ALOT but am a gulper. Any other suggestions for slowing down when drinking liquids? I head if you do this you will subsequently stretch out your pouch. Thanks in advance for the responses.
