    I have a 32 oz (4 cups) refillable bottle and I drink at least 2 (64 oz/8 cups) of these a day with my total usually ending up around 9-10 cups or 72-80 oz. I find it harder to get the water in in the winter and when I have a migraine.

    60+ oz. coffee and 100+ oz of plain water, Monday-Friday...not nearly as much on the weekends when I'm not chained to a chair.

    Holy crap, people actually count coffee, tea, soda, and milk as water???

    I thought that was just a joke. :noway:

    I stopped drinking water because this lady posted last week that drinking water will lower your sodium levels and you will die....not risking it.

    It varies with what I'm doing that day (and temperature) but on average between 1.5 and 3 litres of water plus my obligatory 3 cups of coffee in the morning.

    I have a 0,5 liter bottle by my side at home and in class, and I usually get up to that 8 cup goal :)
    I also drink a lot of tea some days, especially now that the weather is cooler, so I guess that adds up too.

    Several liters during the run of a work day, and when I'm home from work a good number of large glasses. Can't get enough of the stuff, I have to limit myself so I'm only going to the bathroom on an hourly basis.

    I have a liter bottle, so maybe 2 bottles a day on my bad days. On my really good days I try for 3 or 4.

    A LOT! My diary every day pretty much says 12 cups. But if you're actually going by a technical "one cup" count, then in reality I drink like 17 cups a day!!

    Not nearly enough .. never drank water before I logged in here 25 days ago .. was always teas, coffees, sodas.. never plain water ..

    Now I'm trying .. but I don't get nearly enough just plain water .. about 3 on average .. :( I have managed between 5-7 before .. but it's a real struggle

    Flavoring them with anything doesn't seem to help ..

    Around 9 tall glasses per day. Plus, two or three cups of herbal tea without any sugar or milk. I put lemon slices in my water to give it some zing.

    I have a water bottle that holds 3 cups and I usually fill it up 3 to 4 times a day, so anywhere from 9-12 cups, sometimes less, sometimes more.

    I'm astonished to see people say they don't drink water because it's boring.
    It's not exactly there to entertain you, and the body requires it for optimal functioning.
