I've never had a problem with my water, in fact I've been tested for diabetes because I drink so much. 5-6 750ml bottles each day at work plus 4-5 cups of herbal tea, then another 2 litres of soda water with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice at home... I think I down about 7L a day.

I keep a 500ml bottle with me at all times, and I'll go through 2-3 of those per day.

awinner_au

2x 750 ml bottles, 3 cups of coffee and on workout days what i drink during the workout , which is 2-3 600ml bottles.

votkuhr

2.5 L of water, 2 cups of green tea, 1 cup of coffee.

I used to suffer terribly from kidney stones. At one point the urologist told me to drink 4 litres of water day day. The habit of drinking loads of water has stuck and I'll drink about 6 pints a day, which I just found out is nearly 3,5 litres.

Sorry, managed to double post.

Nicolee_2014

4-5 litres a day

Jesslane93

I drink 750ml of water daily + 2 coffee's with mostly water, and a little bit of milk. And have 200ml of cordial with dinner. Have pretty much tried to cut out all fizzy drink.

Padzster

About 4-5 litres a day

yorkshiregoal

About 3 - 4 L per day, plus usually 1 or 2 herbal teas

scottywor

5-6L/day

Not nearly enough, I've always struggled to drink water as I just don't like it, plus I hate tea and coffee so I don't take in water that way. I'm almost always dehydrated. I can manage maybe 2 medium-sized glasses a day. I know it's really bad, I'm trying hard to force myself to drink more, it's a constant battle for me though. I still drink fruit juice (mainly fresh orange) and sugar-free soda, but I'm also trying to cut down on that, so taking in more water is more essential now. I know it doesn't exactly have much of a taste, but what it does have, I can't stand, and unless it's very cold it almost makes me gag.

Give or take about 3 liters a day...

ThisCharmingFellow

Probably about 1.5l-2l of water a day, in addition to anywhere between 3 and 8 cups of tea.

alexuh

Not enough and I definitely know that! I'm just not a water person :sad:

_lyndseybrooke_

I drink 4-5 16.9 oz bottles of water a day, so 67-85 oz., 8-10 cups, or 2-2.5 liters. I could probably drink more, but I pee enough as it is.

You need to drink ALOT more than 1 litre of water a day!

kt2007

A LOT!!!!!

cheesevixen_staci

I love my Diet Dr. Pepper, and Diet Root-beer, but I am more so a water girl. I carry a 32oz. cup of water with me all day. I have to refill it about 4 times a day. Which mean on average I drink 16 cups of water a DAY!!! I love water. It's quick, easy, and most of the time free.

There is a such thing as drinking "too much" water, but I don't know what that is. I'm probably on that scale lol.
When I was younger I rarely drank water, but I heard that drinking 8 cups a day was beneficial to not just your liver, but it effects a lot of other things in your body too. I started at 8, and now I don't even think about it. Drinking water is just like dieting. It's a long term habit you have to work on to form.

Good Question

SezxyStef

as much as it takes to keep me from being dizzy.

I have low blood pressure and if I am not hydrated enough I get dizzy and weak...:sad:

Usually takes 1 - 1.5liters of water a day add in some coffee and a diet coke or two..and I am good.

jkwolly

At least 16 cups a day. Sometimes more!

cstringfellow2013

3-4 liters of fluid a day during the week. 2-3 on the weekends.

arenad

Usually around 3 L daily.

cloggsy71

Anywhere between 5 & 6 Litres a day - more on a hot day when exercising!

99clmsntgr

3 to 4 32 ounce cups every day. And that's just the water.

Throw in the coffee in the morning and the single can of soda I have at lunch and the occassional frosty refreshing beverage at dinner...I am well hydrated and pee clear.

f1redshoes

Around 1.5L a day of just water, then usually something else (milk, diet pepsi, juice, etc.) to around 2L. If I'm training or rehearsing, more water. I'm really small, though, so any more than 2L results in it just going straight through me

Phrick

6-8 liters of just water and generally probably 16-20 ounces of other fluids.

GameGirl777

2 L at works + 1/2 L of tea + water at home = about 3 Liters.

I think you should drink more than 1L; aim for at least 2 Liters a day. It will help with energy, digestion, and weight loss.
