Isn't this one of the top things to help you lose weight and stay healthy? Who is with me on needing to drink more water?

If there's a couple of ya I could request a blinkie be made for us, hm?

I have been told you are suppose to take your weight and multiple it by 0.03 to work out how much water you should drink per day...

Ie 58 kg x 0.03 = 1.74 litres of water per day. I generally make it to about 1.5 litres of just water.

Yep, water is real good for you! 70% of our bodies are made up with it, so we need a constant supply to keep ourselves healthy!

I know I don't drink enough. Sometimes I don't even realize it until I'm dehydrated and have a headache! I'm sure it would help me with my weight loss goal if I would drink more of it.

I don't drink enough but I am definitely going to start. The problem is usually when I star drinking more water and have like a liter of it a day I urinate a lot more and it gets very uncomfortable and annoying. I have to rush and have had near misses because of it. To lose weight though and to be healthy I can try to put up with it.

I don't even drink enough liquids let alone water. I'm really trying to work on this though.

I don't drink enough. I think I probably drink about half as much as I should.

*raises hand sheepishly* I'm totally guilty. Ditto EdensFury (cool name btw!)...I don't even drink enough liquids and when I'm drinking, I'm certainly not drinking water.

I was one of those people but recently got a bladder infection that had me chugging water to help get some relief so now I am trying to drink atleast a half a gallon of water a day.

I know I need to drink more water. Some days I am better with it than others.

I stopped drinking soda a long time ago and I only drink water, tea and 100% juices. But my problem is that I'm NEVER thirsty so I rarely drink anything throughout the day! I usually have to force myself to down something, and the result from never drinking anything is always looking kind of bloated. I keep trying to work on this but it's so hard
