Title: Do you drink enough water a day?
Post by: JediJohnnie on May 18, 2015, 03:21:15 pm

I try my best but I know I don't drink enough.   I have recently started drinking a glass of water first thing in the morning then wait 15 minutes before ingesting anything else.   Summertime is  easier for me to drink water but I know I should be drinking more than I do.

I average about 6 glasses of water a day. Being a diabetic 6 is about the most I can do. the cooler the day the less I trend to drink on those days I am closer to a quart of water. I tend to drink the majotity of the water in the early part of the day. I tend to sleep better at night when I do that :rainbow: :rainbow: :rose: :wave:

Well, I usually have a small cup with breakfast and one or two small cups with lunch, and then soda for dinner. So I doubt I'm getting the recommend daily intake. But some is better than none!

Yes, that is all I drink on most days. And I also drink smoothies too; if I am not drinking water

I like to think I do.  I don't keep a close eye on how much water I drink but it is between a gallon and a half and two gallons.  What is just as important as how much water you drink, or maybe even more important, is the quality of water you are drinking.

Maybe some days I manage to, but mostly I do not drink enough water. I also drink diet soda which is not good for me. I have a hard time drinking water, not sure why...

I drink quite a bit of water, but not what was advertised as 8 glasses. The problem is I have a weaker bladder and I have enough problems with the amount of liquid I drink in a day, which derail me to the restroom a lot.

No I don't but I need to start doing it consistently because I have heart issues and swelling going on and I'm sure drinking more water would help well the brochure the heart dr gave me said to drink 8 glasses a day.  Its hard for me because I don't feel like I get that thirsty.

I think I do.  When I'm working I drink two liters a day.  At home I might drink a little less but I try to drink as much.  This is in addition to tea.

I'm just getting back on track drinking water. I wish I can get water delivered from Culligan, but I don't know if I can afford it right now (I'm on a budget.)

It's the total amount of water consumed that's important including plain water, that from other beverages and from food. Of course plain water is better than juice and soda but it counts

I probably drink close to a gallon a day. I have a 24 oz water bottle that I refill throughout the day.I try for a bottle a meal, one while exercising and sip the rest of the day

I also drink a glass of Green Tea a day. I don't know if that counts since it's not plain water. ???

I dont, but I do try my best, I gave up sugary drinks and sodas about a year ago and do not regretted.  I drink green tea at least 2 cups a day and I drink about 2 to 2 1/2 bottles of 16 oz of water and my doctors says is not enough but that is about how much I can stand and going to the bathroom as much as I go.

I am not a big fan of water ... so my answer is No I do not drink enough water.  But I am trying to drink more .. found Propel fitness water packets that add flavor to the water .. yummy .. I think I will now be able to get my required amount of water

Lately, I've been drinking smoothies everyday and they have water in them, so I get my water intake that way. If I'm not drinking a smoothie, I drink plain water. Still don't know if I get enough during the day, but I'm definitely drinking more than I used to.
