Between water, iced tea, and a healthy energy drink, I drink about a gallon a day.

One should drink half their body weight in ounces.

I made a chart so I could track my water intake. I average around 70 oz. per 10 days. Nowhere NEAR what I should have.

Not even close 😪 I mean I've set some reminders or those would be my weekly intakes perhaps lol
Nimbus · M
@Elessar I was that way.
One has to force oneself.
Elessar · 26-30, M
@Nimbus Yeah. That's what I do as well.

@Elessar omg that’s not good.

Not even close, I have never liked water, coffee and diet soda are my personal choice. Lately I have been forcing myself to drink more water. As I am aging, the knees and elbows don't hurt as much if I drink a couple of quarts of water throughout the day.

Yes. I don't believe that guideline is close to accurate for most people who spend most of the day inside in the AC. Many doctors recommend that you drink when thirsty and not 8 glasses of water a day.

You're numbers are way off! Quite spreading dangerously false information like this. Amounts depend on several variables. Too much water WILL kill you!
Yes, before i have a sip, i make sure i drink 80oz, thats greater then .5 my body weight, in order to not be fatigued in the morning.
Nimbus · M
😞 I thought I was doing good with my 64oz of water daily. Now. No, im not.

Wait. The 64 oz wasn't counting my coffee and iced tea..sooo lol maybe

I should probably drink a little more.
Nimbus · M
@4meAndyou I'm guessing 90% of us do need to drink more.
Eddiesolds · 61-69, M
I dont know. I always just drink from the tap.
plasticpants02 · 61-69, M
Yes. About 8-9 bottles at work daily
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
I actually drink more
Nimbus · M
@deadgerbil Tsk, tsk :)
Ramrod · 46-50, M
Im sure i don't.
Azlotto · M

Nimbus · M

@Elessar

Never had a problem with stones.
I've found the old recommendation of six to eight 8-oz glasses quite sufficient, and even that may be more than necessary for some people.
