    I'm better about it during the week because all I do is keep a water bottle on my desk and re-fill it whenever it's empty. I simply sip absent-mindedly through the day and remember to chalk up 3 cups each time I have to fill it up again.

    When I get the urge to graze, I chug water. I'm getting in over 10 cups of water a day.

    I have a 16 ounce Starbucks cup, in the morning I fill it up, pound it, fill it back up and drink it through the course of the morning, once it is empty I fill it up, and pound it down, fill it back up and drink the rest through the day, and repeat....with the water I drink at the gym or post runs, 64 ounces turns in to 100+ ounces easily.

    I do!! I have a 32oz water bottle and I drink 3 of those while at work then about 2-3 more glasses when I am at home.

    This is almost me exactly too. I try and drink 2 of my 32 ounce bottles by the end of lunch, one through the afternoon before I go home, then another when I'm at home in the evening.

    The funny thing is, while I pee practically every hour at work, I only have to get up once each night.

    I get thirsty if I don't drink enough water, therefore I drink.

    I drink a ridiculous amount of water. I drink 2.5 litres / 85 ounces of water just at work, then another 3 or 4 glasses at home! I just enjoy drinking plain water. Iced, room temp or boiling. I'm literally in the bathroom every hour though! That bits annoying!

  • I was always very bad about drinking my water every day until I found at Walmart Clear American bottled water 33.8 ounces its flavored sparkling water and it is Great ! I drink about 3 bottles a day which is good for someone who couldnt even remember to drink 8 ounce a day... it comes in all kinds of flavors my favorite is golden peach but there are many flavors..
    If you have a problem getting your water in for the day give this a try... :drinker:

    I like sparkling water and have a 2ltr hanging round the last few days, so I'm sipping throughout the day. Otherwise I have a glass of plain/flavoured water when I start to get fed-up of my tea/coffee
  • I drink quite a bit every day. In the morning I slice up an orange and put it in my water bottle and then add the cold water. Makes the water taste really nice, not like a thick orange juice, just a nice mild orange flavor. When the water is finished I just add more through out the day, leaving the orange in there. In the evening before bed, I take the orange out and eat it. Tastes nice and juicy by this time.

    I used to have a problem with this, however since joining MFP I believe I have been over 8 cups almost every single day. Drinking gradually over the course of the day is easier than trying to drink tons of water all at once. Carry a water bottle if you need to.

    I do not track my water intake. I just check the color of my pee every so often.

    ditto

    I started making a big pot of greet tea with mint in the afternoon - about 1.25 liters. I work it down over the course of the afternoon and it helps me get through the munchies. So, I am able to get the water and the appetite control this way.

    On the occasion that I do get all 8 cups in... I pee like a racehorse lol. Sorry if that's TMI, but it's the truth.

    Every day! I have two big bottles that I carry with me constantly. I'd say I average at least 100 oz. per day.

    I definitely do. I drink so much water, I should bleed water.

    Same here :)
