How much water do you drink a day?

Original post by nov04LIbride

I've been trying to lose some weight, so I've been doing 2-3 bottles of Poland Spring a day, and it seems like soo much!

Water is almost all we drink. We keep a case of canned soda downstairs for when people come over.

For those of you that get bored with water you can add a bit of lemon or lime juice to the bottle. In the summer I cut up some fresh fruit and add it to a picture of water and keep it in the fridge. I got the idea from a restaurant I ate at once.

I think I drink about 2 liters a day.

a gallon...every day..at least sometimes more.

I think I drink 64 oz at work and then for dinner I will have water, sometimes diet soda, but rarely.

I drink a lot..prob 2 liters a day. But just be careful....I actually drank so much water a few years ago when i started WW that i got very sick from it. It flushed all the electrolytes out of my system and it got me really sick...there is a thing as too much water! They say 8 eight ounce glasses should do it :)



so true!! I once fainted due to low blood pressure, the doctor said I was flushing all of the minerals out of my system and that my body needs some salt in it.

None. I don't like water. I drink diet juices if I drink anything at all. I don't drink much during the day. That might not be a good thing though.

I try to drink 3 pints at work & I usually have a Snapple for breakfast, a coke for lunch & 3-4 cranberry juice & selzters at home I am very thirsty, but I can't drink water all teh time. I know I should cut back on the sugary drinks though.



I just cut out everything else cold turkey and it's been HARD...



Do you like seltzer/club soda? Look for the no sodium kind. I find it more refreshing than water--and a little more fun. The flavore oens from Seagram's ( I think) dont' have added sugar or sweetners & are a good change when you need falvor. I like the lemon-lime.

I will also sometimes add lemon or lime to water or seltzer.

Oops, that happens to me often and I've gone to the MD for blacking out - he never even questioned how much water I drink.
