I tried to overdo when I first started and ended up setting myself back so I agree that you shouldn't overdo it. I found that if I sipped one oz every 15 minutes I was able to get enough fluids in during the day not to have worries about dehydration. I think I got 48 oz in that first day.

I was supposed to do 1-2 ounces every 15 minutes.  You can't overdo it on liquids, because they'll go straight through our fully functional stomachs.  (Of course the downside to this later on is that you really need to be careful of liquid calories... since they go straight through our fully functional stomachs!)
