Is there a certain amount of water you should be drinking everyday or should you just drink as much as you want?

    But, but, but.....
    I've got a 1970's bathroom and the toilet is harvest gold, I can't tell what shade of yellow my pee is. Aaah if only it was the delightful blue shade so I could have green pees.

    Most people can just drink to their thirst level- don't forget there is liquid in food too.

    I generally have 1.5-2 litres of water and 2 cups of coffee, others need more; others less.

    The colour is the best indicator.

    Cheers, h.
    (Sorry for the silly post- the toilet is h-gold, so I always have a smile at the colour comparison advice)

    I find making an effort to get 1.5l during my work day gets me there.
    I also have some coffee or tea, maybe a diet coke with lunch, and probably a couple of glasses of water at home in the evening, so I come in more like 2.5l or more.

    But yes, pee colour.

    :lol: You, crazy lady, deserve an updated bathroom! I remember all that harvest gold and brownish olive green and orange. I blame the 80's neon trend on that 70's interior design aesthetic :wink:
