    3 to 4- 20 ounces bottles, does anyone know if skim milk is counted as water intake?

    Only plain water is counted as water intake or plain water with a fruit slice or something like that. I was taught this from a nutritionist.

    60-70oz straight outta the tap. :drinker:

    ...well, I mean, I drink it from a glass...

    I try to drink from a straw 'cause I seem to drink more, faster that way and not fall behind.

    Also, the more water I drink, the less food I consume. I try to drink a glass before I eat each meal and then have my glass, cup, water bottle, whatever handy all day to gulp from.

    Usually 4 -16.9oz of bottled water a day. When I drink brewed green tea, 16-32oz, I include that in my water count, as well.

    Between 11am and 5pm, I've conditioned myself to get up EVERY HOUR from my desk and fill my glass, which is a 24 oz. I'm a classical singer on the side, so I've always been used to lots of water. On the average day, consume usually about 120 oz.

    I'm like an elephant and big water drinker...always have been! I consume at a minimum of one gallon a day~often times more.

    The ol' rule that I always knew to be true was: drink at least 8/8oz glasses of water a day. I learned something new a month ago...

    A good rule of thumb via fitness trainers at my gym: A person should consume 24-32oz of water by 9am, 12pm, 3pm & 6pm daily! Another simple rule is: drink half your body weight in ounces of water. (i.e. if you weigh 200 lbs~drink 100 oz of water daily). Filtered or spring water and green tea can be counted. Adding lemon and/or Stevia may enhance the flavor. The "sweetened" drinks are adding artificial ingredients and/or sugars which are not healthy. Do not exceed 5 gallons of water in a day-it depletes your electrolytes and can be dangerous.
    Hope this information is helpful! Just remember that WATER is the number one key important ingredient to successful weight loss, fitness and health!!!

    I mindlessly sip on water at my desk all day. I like that I have to get up and walk to get more water and get rid of some water. :smile: I usually drink between 64-80oz per day.

    I don't usually drink tap water, but I drink sparkling water, usually between 1.5 and 3 liters a day.

    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.

    Maybe I'll post that fresh fruits and vegetables can make you very sick, and you should never eat any. Wonder how many people will follow my (ignorant) advice.

    Skim milk is milk. Water is water.
