homeschoolmom Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I don't like water. I usually drink a glass of it once a day or so. I like Fruit2O, though. I drink that a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resurrexi Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 An estimate would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcePrincessKRS Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I don't have an estimate. It varies day to day, and I have really big glasses. So, one of mine might equal 2 of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fidei Defensor Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I reuse my "Smart Water" bottle, which is 1L. I usually drink about 2 bottles worth of water a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] 6 3/4 cups (the size glass I usually drink out of) vs. 5 1/4 cups (a regular sized glass) minimum per day. That's if I only fill the glass 3 times. I think I usually drink more, though.

Not to mention the caffeine, which in quantities that high can pose long-term health risks. If what you drink is caffeinated. Moderation in all things ... I drink bottled H20, so no fiddler. I drink 3-4 16 oz. bottles a day, plus I like Vitamin Water and Sobe Lifewater -- although some flavors not as much these days. So I drink a lot of water. Some milk -- usually 1 glass a day or so. Also one glass of OJ. I very rarely drink soft drinks, although I have been drinking ginger ale recently. Also I like San Pellegrino makes a carbonated beverage with either lemon or orange flavor I really like but don't have too often. Most soft drinks are too sweet for me though.

It's an issue for women anyway, without the soda complication. I used to drink a lot of soda, but the calories add up quick (180 for a can, more for a 20 oz. bottle). I don't need any extra calories.
