My husband balked at having to drink so much until he realized that on days he did not get enough fluids, he felt nauseous and really crappy. The feeling is not pleasant at all. Even half a day of not getting enough fluids can throw him off. Now I keep a running record on the ipad of how much fluids and calories he has taken in and show it to him at about 3 p.m., and if it is not enough, he will still have time to make it up.
