  • I average 108 ounces per day. All I drink is water; it has been this way for me for over a year now. At times I will have a hot decaf tea but that is only when I have a sore throat. No more diet sodas for me!
  • Quote: Not enough
    Do you not like the taste of water? I'm asking because I HATE drinking large quantities of water... BUT if I put a mint teabag or some fruity herbal tea in it than it's so much easier to drink large quantities
  • 320 ounces
  • Question: Has drinking water all the time help you lose weight? I drink about 32 oz a day.
  • 80 fluid ounces a day plus 50 fl oz black instant coffee/herb tea.

    Like Couch I do a pee check and drink more there and then if it looks a bit dark.

    Usually it's well spaced out during the day but if my work means I'm going to be far from facilities, my drinking is sometimes a bit concentrated into bursts.

    I do think it's helped me lose weight. It's definitely helped with fluid retention.
  • It's kinda funny that the secret to getting rid of water retention is....more water! LOL Seriously though...I can tell a difference on the days I drink alot and the days I don't....
  • I drink 128 ounces per day...My dr told me to go by the color of my urine also.It should be clear.
  • I try to drink at least 135 oz a day. I have heard several times that you should do half your body weight.
  • Quote: How much water do you drink in a day? Just curious.
    lots, I'd say roughly 6 or 7 cups during the day and maybe, and 8 or so at night.
  • How do you water counters keep track? I find it a bit difficult. I usually drink from a pint glass or a water bottle, so roughly 50ml a pop. I lose count though! I find it tedious beyond belief to log all my glasses/bottles, and I find that I forget how much I have actually had.
  • I drink between 2 and 4 liters a day. I'm a teacher and stuck in a classroom for hours without a bathroom, so I can't drink much then. But, drinking water comes naturally to me. I drink it without having to think about it. It's the time in the classroom where I have to focus on not drinking too much.

    Really? That's like 2.5 GALLONS, isn't it? Holy Niagara Falls!!
  • I drink two 16.9 bottles a day....not enough but all I can swing right now...gag.

    I use the same bottle throughout the day...I drink 4 of them which comes out to 120 oz. I have an aluminum bottle and a Brita filter pitcher...good for the environment, easy to keep track of.

    That's what I need. I'm refilling 2-3 of the same water bottles per day. I hate the waste, though!
