How much do you drink in a day?

I feel like I don't drink enough. at the beginning I was so thirsty that I couldn't drink enough water, now I'm turned off by a sip of water. I drink lots of drinks and try to keep it light but I feel like I'm not drinking enough

how much do you drink a day?

how much are we supposed to drink a day?

I drink a minumum of 5-16.9 oz bottles of water with lemon in it or a little bit of lemonade mix or half juice half water

I just started drinking enough per day. I'm pregnant with Twins, so my doctor advised me to drink at least 2 liters per day, so I drink about 6-7 Bottles of water per day.

Try drinking the water with a straw. It seems easier to get down.

Put a lemon or strawberry in it for flavor.

I drink about 5 16.9 oz bottles of water a day also. I think that's plenty. Today I am drinking way more since I had a lot of salty food over the weekend.

My Dr. wants me to drink 1 gallon (128 oz) of water a day! Chat Icon That's a little over 6 of my 20 oz water bottles. I'm probably drinking closer to 100 oz most days.

Re: How much do you drink in a day?

Not enough! Maybe 60 oz? I really need to drink more, but until it gets all hot and summery I just have no desire! Sometimes I just chug a glass cuz I know I need to!

during the week its easier. i drink at least 2 34oz water bottles (closer to 3) plus a glass or two of milk and a cup of coffee. I find it to be more difficult on the weekends and Im sure i shouild be drinking more then bc i know I eat waaaaay more sodium on the weekends.

In the beginning, regular water just wasn't cutting it, so I added lemon.

Then I switched over to seltzer b/c THAT was what I wanted.

Now, I have 1 cup of coffee in the am along with a glass of OJ, then ICE water all day long. I just keep filling my glass, so I don't really know how much I am taking in.

Re: How much do you drink in a day?

I drink 12-16 oz of coffee in the morning, sometimes 8 oz of juice and then 64 oz of water (give or take a few oz) thereafter. I thought I was drinking so much I'm going to float away but I'm not on par with some of you ladies at all. I better step up my game.

To the OP: I find if I put cucumbers or lemons and limes in the water, I'm more likely to drink it.
