Drinking Water

[Mups]

How much water do you try and drink each day  -  or don't you?

They are always telling us we should have 'so many'  glasses,  but they never say what size glass they are talking about! 
There would be a lot of difference between  4 little tumblers  to 4 pint size ones, wouldn't there.

So what do you like to aim for?
I have been drinking about 3 and a bit pints during this hot weather,  plus tea and coffee as well.

I normally drink about two litres of water a day - but it has to be really cold - keep refilling bottles and leaving them in the 'fridge.  Have been drinking more because of this heat.  I also drink tea first thing in the mornings to kick start the day.

I used to prefer purified water. Trouble was I put on too much weight and kept dropping off to sleep. That's the problem with gin.

2 litres?   That's about 4 pints in old money isn't it?   
Blimey,  I'd never be out the loo.  

Is that your normal amount,  or just because of this heatwave?

[Silver Tabby]

Normal amount, Mups, more in this heat!

I drink a glass of water when I think about it.. I don't have a goal or or measure my water intake..
In this heatwave I fill a jug of cold water add freshly squeezed lemon juice and pop it in the fridge..
I also drink tea and one coffee a day.. I think common sense has a lot to do with it..

I start the day off with a pint glass of water and lemon before I go to the pool, sets my digestive system up for the day. Depending on how hot it gets I drink around a litre of water through the day, summer and winter, often more in the summer.

[Mups]

Yes, I like half a lemon squeezed into the water too -  and an ice cube if I've made some.

Couple of pints, I take a water bottle when i go out.  Other soft drinks and the odd coffee during the day. Tea first thing.
