NWR: do we have any nutritionist/dieticians on here?
Okay so... I'm drinking loads of water.
And since I've been on the ol' weight loss road I've read a lot of conflicting things about how much you should be drinking.
The old rule is eight 8oz glasses.
Then I've read you should take your weight, divide by 2 and thats how many oz you should drink. So a 140 lb person should drink 70 oz a day.
Then I've read that you don't even need to drink 8 8oz glasses because there's water in everything you eat basically.
I drink... like...tons. Not because I'm thirsty just because... I like drinking. Keeps my mouth busy and I'll drink water, crystal light or diet soda just to keep me occupied away from calories.
But I'm just curious as to what a dietician would say about water intake?
