Drinking One Gallon of Water a Day!

[Wotchered]

Teleri69, I think your ounce of water to half pound of bodyweight might cause a problem- It's called drowning !!

I usually drink a gallon of water before noon each day I am in the gym at 4am so by noon I am most of the way through my day.

Too much water can harm you. Be sure you're doing what's right for you.

Yep, too much water is bad for you. But you should use the clear pee rule. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day or more if your urine is not clear. Athletes or people working out in warm climates need more water than the average office chair jockey

The general rule I thought was 1/2 your body weight in OZ. So if you weigh 200lbs then you would need 100oz of water. That’s for a regular day. Obviously you’ll need more if you exercise or are in a hot environment. I’m lucky if I can drink 64 oz of water.

Sorry for the American old school non relative to the rest of the world measurements.

I’ve been tracking my daily water intake with WaterMinder, and I tend to drink 3.7 liters/day.

That makes a bit more sense ! As for your measurements, most of my era Brits use the older and original system of imperial measurements- 20oz to the pint , we drink beer in imperial pints- 64oz not even a snifter !! For entertainment we used to drink a yard of ale, an oversized glass holding in it’s largest incarnation 3 1/2 imperial pints, to see who was fastest (loser pays)
All that, was to point out that the amounts required are quite small really !

Happy new year !!

I don't have any specific value on how much should i drink water. But I drink a lot, when my body requires me to drink, maybe something like the mininum would be 1.5 L.

Sometimes when i eat so much salty food, automatically i have desire to drink water a lot, maybe my body need to flush out something through urine

I’m back in the gym, but only doing cardio. At the conclusion of this week, now that I’ve got my wind back, I’ll return to weightlifting. Anyway, not only has my water consumption increased a bit more, but I’ve been wolfing down food like a garbage disposal.

Folks,

So lately I have been reading about the benefits of drinking more water. Also my city, has recently instituted a "sugar" tax on beverages with any kind of sugar. In my case that is only the artificial kind, BUT still it costs me extra! So to save money AND for health reason, I have decided to start drinking mostly water. Well I read about this one gallon a day water challenge. Now it's hard, BUT I think I can do it! It's 8, 16 bottles a day. Right now I'm half way through bottle 4.

So who is with me? Lets do this together. Lets drink more water and get healthy!

5/6 Yeti's a day...I'm good.

Hello,
Yes, Drinking approximately 3-4 liters of water in a day is sufficient and good for your health.

 

[Wotchered]

I think you will find that liquid intake does NOT have to be water. can be coffee,tea,or other potable fluid.

I think Water is probably the healthiest option. I need to drink more water... I drink far too much soda.

Too much chlorine for my taste in London water !

Drinking enough water each day is crucial for many reasons: to regulate body temperature, keep joints lubricated, prevent infections, deliver nutrients to cells, and keep organs functioning properly. So pay attention to it! Moreover it's important to drink high quality water...

Define “high quality water” please...

Define “high quality water” please...

For me that’s by far Coca Cola. It’s the most highest quality water to drink

Does drinking tea count? Being English, we drink a few cups of tea a DAY!
