    :grumble: I hate drinking that much water in a day. I'm in the bathroom 2-3 times an hour.

    I have done the same thing, measure my water in my favorite cup and I usually go over my water intake for the day!!! Works great that way!:happy:

    What I do is every time I bring my water bottle or drinking glass to my lips, I make sure that I drink one cup in one take. It helps with my water bottle because then I can squeeze it in really quickly. Now I drink like that naturally, and I can drink about 10-12 cups a day.

    yeah .. but thats the whole point... of flushing your system... if i know how i feel.. i dont pee as frequently as i did when i fist started...but i did get excersise going up and down the steps to get to the bathroom all day long..lol so i benefited both ways...
