Anyone interested in a thread like this?

Keep track of water and/or liquid intake. Of course, the more water you drink the better it is for your body to flush out toxins and such and helps promote weight loss.

I haven't been drinking much water myself and plan to get my 8 glasses in starting tomorrow. Don't wanna start now or I'll pee the bed! :P

:nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod:

I SOOOOO need help with this. My minimum goal is 4 bottles a day (at almost 17 oz per bottle, that's 68 oz per day). I'd LIKE to get 5 in, but don't know if I'll be able to do that on the outset.

Great idea!!

I actually drink about 4 quarts (that's liters to most of the world and litres to Canucks!) every day.

I drink close to 90oz a day :blink:

I got used to just guzzling it down through out the day. Sparkpeople.com keeps track of water too... :wave:

I've got no idea what those oz mean but I need to drink 8 glasses of water a day (that's 2 litres)....

Clay, who on earth ever heard of a liter???? :screwy:

At the moment I drink none :bonk: as I was telling Lena the other day. I asked her to help keep me accountable so I better be in on this or she'll come after me with a pan ('cos she's a true friend ;))..

Yep, c'mon Hope......start slow. And remember how much you peed when you were PG?

Same thing...........even to getting up in the middle of the night!! :nod:

Until your body gets used to it, that is.

And this reminds me......gotta go put some water in the fridge. Our well water, notsogood to drink, unless you're desperate!! :sick:

Yes, Hope, I thought about you when I started the thread. :bounce:

Litre, quart...whatever...I can usually drink 4 cups (1 litre) of green tea and 2 bottles of water (500ml per bottle) a day. To keep it up can be a challenge, though. :nod:

Oh please be careful with that water intake!! Ther is such a thing as too much water..Called water intoxication..Here's a link to info:

Hyponatremia!!

I've been putting away nearly a gallon of liquid away for 20 years now. Used to be booze. After I quit drinking that it was Gatorade. Then my lovely wife introduced me to Diet Coke and I was putting down 3 litres (did I spell that right?) a day at work and iced tea by the gallon when I got home. Now, it's jes water. And 18 cups o' joe this morning...

I've had my 4 cups of water and 4 cups of green tea and 2 cups of coffee. Coffee doesn't count, IMO....I've got my 8 cups in today! :thanks:

I was minoring in Nutrition and kenesiology before I switched everything over. I know how much is too much and when I haven't had enough.
When I exercised more I drank slightly over 100oz a day :blink: but that's what I needed especially when running.

I've tappered down for now. I think too many ppl over eat and don't drink enough these days... :dunno:

:agree:

I've read that when you feel hunger pangs, it's more often than not just being thirsty.

I get headaches if I don't stay hydrated, and when good ol' Aunt Flo is here, I have to REALLY watch it because I get dehydrated alot easier~

I've felt good today, drinking all the water. I'm working on the last bottle now, that'll bring me up to about 68 oz (20 liters)~ :thanks:

I'd spend my life in the bathroom if I drank as much as you guys!

I have been, today!! :nod:

But really, I think after a few days your body gets used to it. If I remember right.....

I haven't been as much. So yeah, you get used to it.

Anyone wanna start an eating accountability thread? Hmm?

:hide:

:agree:

:boo:

:shh:

Ok, ok....I got the message! :lol:

Got my 8 cups in today! :nod:

2 bottles down, 2 to go........

**we need a pee smilie!!**

:happy:

That one peeing in a circle cracks me up!!

Altho I'd feel funny using it for myself......haven't QUITE gotten that little trick down, yet........... :P

i have to have water or i'm just so thirsty i drink like 2 or 3 32 oz bottles a day .

I only got in 3 bottles yesterday (7 glasses), and one was RIGHT at bedtime so of course I was up like twice to pee!!

Gonna get in all 4 today, tho!! :nod:

I only got in 6 cups, which is 3 bottles. At the end of the day I realized I need one more bottle yet....but I didn't wanna drink too much before bedtime!

Only got 6 in yesterday, too. Gotten 6 in today so far! 2 more to go!

Starting late today, just now finished 3....so I need to drink about 2 1/2 more bottles.... :sick:
