i take the challenge newbootie, but i must warn u, i drink my water out of a 64oz mug everyday. I usually drink that much in one execrise session. Plus the medz im on gives me dry mouth so i figure i drink 64oz x 4 daily. im gonna win! how do i sign up?0

I'm suppose to drink 14 cups a day, because I'm suppose to be 150, and i'm 210. yikes. that's LOT of water lol i think if i drank as much as i'm suppose to every day, i wouldn't have any room in my stomach for food =P0

I am gonna make a sign sheet thru excel and I'll input water daily...0

The formula for how much water you drink is this.
Take your weight in lbs and divide it by 2. That is how many ounces a person should drink a day.......... Drinking too much water can be dangerous. You can strip your body of electrolytes in excess this can be deadly....0 -

I'm sure nobody on here would go overboard, but be careful of over-hydration too. It's not as common dehydration, I think, but just something to keep in mind. I know of someone who overdid it last summer, it messed up his sodium levels, gave him seizures, and almost 2 weeks hospitalization. He may have had underlying conditions that made him more susceptible, but just keep it in mind.
Here's an article about it... http://www.merckmanuals.com/home/sec12/ch158/ch158c.html0 -
