    100 oz? Ok, I'm in! :drinker:

    Just brought Crystal Light packets to work. That'll help too! (This isn't cheating right? :tongue: )

    I want to be in because I need to do better with my water intake....but 100oz seems like a river..... I'm not sure how much I am supposed to drink to reach that goal. How many liters is that?

    The water challange is just water nothing added except maybe a lemon but no crystal light

    Well, I always count my crystal light as water - so I guess I will breaking your rules. I suppose since their isn't a prize- I'll be ok. :laugh: I'm just wanting to drink more water and if adding flavoring works for me- its what I gotta do.

    I'm the same way. I can go with just some lemmon in it, but I do crystal light.

    You guys obviously don't know about water toxicity, but people die from it.

    Drinking water is good. Forcing water in short periods of time is stupid,..... unless you're with the CIA and questioning a terrorist.

    Actually it is very healthy to drink water. For a 200lbs male/female you are required to drink atleast 100oz of water a day just to stay hydrated. Now if you're 120lbs soaking wet then thats a different story.

    I supplied you with the information, but feel free to remain clueless.

    100oz over a day may be good (I dunno I live in england and we work in ml) but if you were to try and force the same amount in lets say 30 minutes it strips the cells in the body and can ultimately kill you.

    Drinking water is good. Forcing water down in a short period of time when the body is trying to stop you is bad.

    I believe thats what Sanke was trying to say
