Hi All,

I'm trying to work out how much water I should drink a day and it says 8 glasses but what size should the glass be?

Or what would it be in milliliters??

8 ounces, or 250mL for 1 serving.

I use 8 ounces as my measurement of a glass of water.

Bump is put in a thread to either: move it back to the top of the threads (refreshes the topic) or some people use it as a marker so it will show up in your list of threads so you can refer to it later.

There are different recommendations in regards to the size of the person, etc, but generally speaking... When you're told you should have 8 glasses of water a day, it's meaning 8 oz 'glasses,' so 64 ounces of water.

And when people say "bump" they're bumping the thread so that more people are likely to see it & respond.

Just drink around 2 liters of water. It doesn't matter to drink it in small oder big glasses. If you drank your two liters, just add eight glasses on MFP and everything is fine. That's how I do it.

I get my 8 glasses by bringing a 2L bottle of water to work every day, it does get easier to drink it all, honest!

Yup, a MFP serving of water is 8 ounces, or 250 mL, or one cup. The glasses I have at home that I drink out of are 2 cups so I count them as two servings of water when I track them. I also have 1 cup glasses which I use as easy measure for things like milk, juice, etc when I do drink those things.

When you"bump" a thread you can easily find it to read later under "my topics"

A glass of water is 8 ounces (236.6 ml).

A person enters "Bump" when they wish to return to this thread later. On your "My Home" is a list of your posts, weight loss, days logged in, etc. From this list you can easily return to a post... hence the "Bump".

Another easy way to track the 8oz servings, I drink bottled water which is 16oz per bottle. That's an easy 2 servings of water & very easy to drink 4 bottles per day!
