    That is cool and a lot of people realize you do get some water from foods too, just no way to measure it

    That's awesome.
    That seems pretty accurate.
    With everything calculated, it told me between 115-130 oz./day based on exercise and duration of exercise (and heat where I am).
    Right now I drink about 120 oz. when I exercise, 90 when I don't. The more water I drink, the easier it is for me to lose weight.

    Cool! I just estimated a general day with gym, etc and pretty much what I was naturally drinking was what it said my body needed!

    That's really cool - my goals for drinking are a little higher than what it said, but one more glass is not going to kill me and will help when it comes to me starting my hard-core exercise.

    Thanks for sharing!
