How much water do you drink?

[Arctic_Ang3L]

1.25 Gallons or Around 5.5 liters (maybe a little less sometimes) of fluids per day. 70-80% of this is water, the rest is milk/drinkable yogurt/green tea (sometimes I drink a lot of this stuff... really healthy) and maybe some natural fruit juices with minimal artificial flavors. Need it as I am consistently active.

The "8 glasses" to stay healthy should be a bare minimum, even for smaller sized people. You can survive on much less, but that does not mean its "enough". You're probably just cutting your lifespan and doing damage to your body.

For those that say they feel "bloated" or "too full of water", I suggest you trickle in fluids throughout the day, rather than trying to down 2 liters within one hour. Make it a habit to carry around some water with you or something. Take a couple sips every 15 minutes. Hope that helps.

Oh and FYI, by the time you are feeling "thirsty", you are already 2 to 3 % dehydrated, and that isnt good. Dont drink because you feel thirsty. Drink on schedule.

I drink as much water as I need to.

[Yuffie514]

quite a lot. i have to refill the bottle a few times a day and i like the water cold.

[Momiji]

I drink plenty of water, in some form at least. If it is just straight water though, it has to be cold with ice cubes in it. Any warmer, and I just won't drink it.

Water that isn't super cold is undrinkable, yes.

Then why post in this thread in the first place?

To voice my discontent, appreantly.

I don't really care for plain water so I put a bit of juice in it for flavour and I try to drink 6 to 8 cups a day. I tend to fall short of that amount most days than not though.

[Rase]

I rarely drink plain water, so whatever amount I get I get from other things like fruit.

Milk on the other hand.

2L Of water a day, god I hate my diet.
It isn't even working (yes my own fault, I know)

I drink a glass at most a day. i really should drink more but I'm one of those people that doesn't tend to drink a lot but when I get thirsty I can drink gallons.
I tend to drink more water (obviously) during my martial art classes.

[_Einhänder]

Less than a gallon. I should be drinking more.
