    I drink one gallon of water on a normal week day. I drink much less on the weekends.

    Drink when you're thirsty or if your urine is dark yellow. We are the products of millions of years of evolution and have very good mechanisms to keep ourselves hydrated. Maybe in extremely hot climates, altitude or after extensive exercise making sure we take in fluids is important, but for the vast majority of us the "drink x amount of water a day" is not necessary. Water is good for sure, but more is not necessarily better. I see threads where people say "I'm drinking so much a day but I'm peeing every 15 minutes" - that is ridiculous. Our kidneys are excellent organs at removing waste products from the bloodstream, but some water-soluble nutrients do end up in urine. There is no need to "flush" ourselves with water. Be thankful you have clean, safe water to drink unlike for millions in the world

    I do drink when I'm thirsty. Apologies that my thirst pops up often enough to add up to a gallon of water every day.

    But seriously, my FLUID intake (coffee, tea, etc.) averages between 120 and 160 oz.

    I average around 2 liters. I get kidney stones if I don't drink enough to constantly flush out my kidneys.

    On a regular day, this is where I'm at, too. Plus coffee, tea, etc.

    I'm working my way up to 8 glasses a day, on my best day I had 6 so far. I don't like just plain water, so I put a few drops of lemon juice in it, just to give it a little tang, then it's like drinking a very watery lemonade - I find it helps :)

    :-) 5-7 L a day (that's 160-240 oz). Not because it's a fitness/health goal, but because I love it and when I don't drink a lot of water I'm thirsty and cranky.
