Default How much water do *you* drink a day?

I am not sure if I drink enough. I drink 8 cups of water approx. (sometimes way less) I am NOT a fan of water so I mix it with a lot of crystal light.

How much do you drink per day?

I drink 16-20 glasses a day. I like water as long as it taste "pure". I have a filter on my faucet and sometimes when I want to treat myself I will buy bottled water... I do sometimes mix Crystal Lite with my water.

I heard that you only need to drink water til your urine gets clear or pale. There's water in a lot of the foods we eat.

On average, I fill up my 24oz water bottle at least five times throughout the day.

Water is the only thing I drink on a day to day basis, aside from iced tea when I'm eating out. I used to hate it, but I gave up pop several years ago and have acquired a taste for it.

I don't really keep track of the amount of water I drink, but I think it would be between 4 to 6 cups of water. I also drink plain tea and diet coke and sometimes coffee. I remember reading about how we don't really need to drink lots and lots of water like a lot of people would have you believe. I just drink when I'm thirsty, or if I'm craving some food I'll turn to tea.

I usually drink 64-100 oz a day just depending on how much activity I have been doing and such.

I drink about 100 oz a day, give or take. I love water, but only iced cold water and most of the time, only bottled water. I can even call it an addiction - a healthy one!
