I have the opposite problem, after one glass of water I feel full and drinking any more makes me nauseous. It’s a struggle to get sufficient hydration during the day.

How many ounces consumed over how many minutes?

Don't drink the whole glass at once?

Try adding a rehydrating powder mix, the same stuff they use for treating diarrhoea. It’s just salts, glucose, and citric acid. It is hugely more hydrating than plain water, with a much faster onset of feeling relief from intense thirst. Sports drinks are basically the same thing, but with excess sugars for “energy” (and weight gain).

try carbonated water +/- lemon juice

  A good choice if you have a carbonating machine; just take care of your teeth afterwards, especially if you add lemon juice.

    You gotta clarify what "take care of your teeth afterwards" means, because brushing your teeth after eating lemons is the worst thing you can do. Best thing is to do absolutely nothing.

      Rinse with plenty of water.

What are your thoughts on cows milk? There are a number of studies suggesting it’s better at hydration than plain water regardless of skim vs. whole.

  I own a dairy cow and milk twice a day. I drink a lot of milk. For me, it’s definitely not as good for hydration. And unless you skim it thoroughly (yuck!), it contains an obscene number of calories. It’s not a great substitute for water, but it tastes far better.

First off, it doesn’t have to be plain water. Secondly, the two liters a day was two liters of moisture, not drinking two liters a day; food is included in this amount

Until then it hadn't occurred to me you're still effectively drinking half a pint of milk when you eat a bowl.
