Ok, so I drink a lot of water. All day ... and I work in an office. Does anyone else get odd looks when they go to the water cooler all the time or do you think it is paranoia? :smile:

    I am more concerned about the looks I get when I use the restroom just about every hour!

    Honestly, I have so much trouble getting my water in for the day, I wish I was taking all the trips to get more water. Are you actually thirsty for it? I feel like whenever I have it I have to force myself to drink!!! So hard!!!

    Good job on your water! Just ignore all the looks!:laugh:

    haha - me too. I try to take "alternate" routes to the restroom so I don’t pass the same people’s cubes all day.

    I drink tons of water too, and yes everyone does look at me funny. I used to have a big, no HUGE, water jug that I would fill once but then everyone started making fun of it, so now I have to fill up 3 times a day.

    Well, I wanted to be delicate, but since you all brought it up (thanks!): it's like a viscious cycle ... filling up my water bottle and going to the restroom. HA!

    I've got a friend at work who hates drinking water. There are these shot glass-sized cups near all the water coolers at our office, so she keeps one at her desk and goes to take "water shots" throughout the day. It seems to work for her!

    Lyric82: Apparently I was afraid of getting crazy looks in here too, I'm right there with you. When I am in my office its more like two times an hour.

    I got two water bottles for Christmas from co-workers. LOL. Guess they think I drink a lot of water. Haha. About a gallon a day. I'm in the bathroom every hour, too. Mostly in the morning. People are always going to look at you weird when you're doing something different than what they do.

    I used to hate and I do mean HATE water too! I would never drink it, I bet at one point in my life I may have went months without any actual water... but when I made myself quit drinking soda, tea and energy drinks (still have maybe one a week) I started drinking extremely cold water, lots of ice cubes, and I now love and crave water! I would rather have it than the sweet stuff, the sweet drinks almost make me feel sick to my stomach now!

    I am not really thirsty (I heard that if you are thirsty, you are dehydrated). I just love me some water: it give me energy and it's oddly delish at this point.

    Same here... I feel up my 32oz bottle and am in and out of the bathroom all day.... but I feel like it flushes my system out and gives me more energy.... So really I'm not thirstyfor it.. I just havea goal to get my water in for the day.. so sometimes if I am about to go to lunch or leave for the day I make myself finsh whatever is left before I go... I usally get way more than 8 cups a day.. usually somewhere around 12 to 14 cups a day.

    I drink about 4-5 liters of water daily .. they saw your body adjusts to how much you're drinking but I'm callling BS. I am ALWAYS running to the bathroom. I think my coworkers are just used to it now. Best way to fit it in is to either chug a liter when you wake up or on your commute to work. I often have to force myself to drink it, I'm not always thirsty but I know the benefits so I do it!
