I'm just curious how much water everyone drinks on average/day?

I usually drink about 12. Sometimes 16 if I've been working out. This doesn't include tea or other drinks. I think I'm perpetually dehydrated :P

How much do you drink?

    One if I'm lucky. I can't stand the stuff. I'll drink from the water fountain at the gym, but that's about it. Other than that it's tea and coffee all day.

    You are supposed to drink half of your weight in Ounces so 150 lbs = 75 oz. it is hard to do , but i fill up a large container to the oz i should drink and pout it into my water bottle and it is a good visual for how much I should be drinking and reminds me to drink more. the more i drink the better metabolism and also makes my skin less zitty etc.

    I do half my body weight in pounds as fluid ounces, works out to 8 cups, I seem to range in the 7-9 cups a day. I try to go for more but for someone who was chronically dehydrated less than 6 months ago from 3-4 cups a day I've made a huge improvement. Feel so much better.

    Have you seen those Lipton Tea fruit infusion things? I haven't tried them but they look pretty good. Maybe you would like them in your water to give it some flavour?

    I don't. I just don't enjoy the taste of plain water. I just drink flavored water.

    Between 8-10. I try for a minimum of 8. I don't know if it's the warmer weather or what, but lately it seems like the more I drink the thirstier I am!

    I have already had 120oz -- that is typical for me just at work. Sooo like 17-20 8oz "glasses" of water day. I drink out of a 32 oz water bottle though!

    As a coworker of mine would say.... I try not to drink water. I have enough blood in my alcohol already.

    Plain water? Zero.

    My liquid intake comes from way too much diet pepsi, and my post workout drink.

    12 - 15 cups a day. I realize it's now more than half my weight. I may lessen my water intake. :)

    not nearly enough as I should but I do know you are not suppose to drink to much over the set amount required in a day, as it can be more harmful then good x

    8-14 cups. Though some days I just don't drink much because I am tired of having to go to the bathroom from all the water! :laugh:

    I range from 6-13 depending on the day. When I am doing well, i will average around 10. Don't over do it though. Watch your pee. It needs to be pale yellow...not clear! Just be safe! huggles!

    I usually stop counting after 10. I'm always thirsty and it helps my belly stay full feeling so I don't snack.

    i usually have to work hard to drink even 3 glasses. Been starting to drink crystal light packets to work and drink 8 oz at a time with just a little flavor. been doing that today and just barely i went to drink more of my 5th glass and realized it was already gone. the Crystal light definitely helps me and i am going to start making sure that i drink at least 8 glasses a day now.
