Gallon a day water drinkers?

you should drink 1/2 your body weight in oz so if you weigh 120 lbs you drink 60 oz.. i have a free app on my phone called waterlogged it alerts me to drink up lol

I drink lots of water and have had such an improvement in my skin! No kidding...I used to have horrible skin, now it feels amazing~EVEN IN THE HARSHEST DRY WINTER CLIMATE where I live....so I swear by it, to hydrate and moisturize! I love my water!

8 bottles (16oz) of water = 1 gallon of water

Some days I drink a gallon or more...

I've put down a gallon of water daily for most of the last eight months. I don't feel like Internetting all the researched reasons in favor of consuming that much water, so I'll post my experiences. Consuming a gallon of water a day has:

given my kidneys enough water to process creatine supplementation
seriously reduced muscle tension, especially in my calves
kept me, in general, "fuller" on less food
cut down, if not elimination, extra subcutaneous water retention
eliminated post-cardio headaches

for me.

I am a swim instructor.I always tend to drink a lot of water throughout the day.I notice that when i dont drink much water i prune up more.Most of the time when i drink water throughout i dont prune at all i attribute this to keeping well hydrated.Better bottles work great for me they are easy to carry around and fun to drink out of. I have notced that its easier for me to drink my gallon a day if start in the am with a pint glass of water (16oz) An hour or so later if im thirsty i will drink another before work.And then i continue to drink all day.I find having a 2 serving size bottle is easier to drink and easier to fill.if you are trying to lose weight or if you like to over eat (like me ) a good way to help cut down on over eating is to drink one full 8 ounce glass of water before each meal.this helps you feel full faster and if you don't finish everything on your plate you can always wrap it up and eat it later in the day or if its dinner save it for lunch tomorrow.

Thanks for these answers.

I have started drinking one gallon a day, and walking (or jogging) 1 mile to the refill water station at night, and 1 mile back with my water gallon filled for the next day. If the gallon of water a day doesn't get results, perhaps the walking will.



*add me as a friend!

I get Perrier lemon water and drink it with a lemon slice or two to up my water intake

You all know a gallon is 9 pints, or 4.5 litres - right?

The 8 glasses they recommend per day are 200mls each. That is 1.6 litres. Or three pints.

You risk water intoxication if you drink too much.

Just saying - don't go overboard!

I drink around 12 cups a day, plus about 1.5 cups of coffee. Sometimes I also drink tea, and there's also water in the food I consume. Someone told me I was going to get water intoxication, so I cut down and tried to drink only eight cups. My body HATED me for it, I had a headache the next day, my lips were chapped, and I felt so gross. So I think 12-14 cups is my magic number. I have a huge restaurant-sized cup (like 24oz I think) that I fill up over and over. I drink one of them with breakfast, one with lunch, one while I work out, one with supper, and rarely, one more after supper. I pee all day long, but my skin is clear, and I don't feel like binging as much as I used to. Other people may get by drinking less water, but I just can't.

So how did it work?

I don't consciously set out to drink a gallon but I drink water constantly all day. Probably more than a gallon but sometimes when I don't feel like drinking it, I'll use some of those mio flavor things.

Are those mio flavor thingies worth it?
