Talk to me about your daily water intake.
My new doctor told me I need to drink more water and I think I might not be doing it right, as moronic as that sounds. So, do you have a water routine? How much do you drink? And how often (if you don't mind me asking) do you have to pee throughout the day?
Re: Talk to me about your daily water intake.
I have a 32 oz water bottle I fill up in the morning. I add lemon and thanks to pinterest some mint. I freaking love it!!! Sometimes I add strawberries. I used to use crystal light, but trying to get rid of putting artifical crap in my body.
My goal is to drink 16 oz in the morning, fill it back up. 16 oz with lunch, fill it back up. 16 oz in the afternoon, then finish the last 16 oz at the gym or at home. Sometimes I'll have flavored seltzer water with dinner if I don't finish my 64 oz, green tea if I do.
In the beginning I peed all the time. Now it's when I get up, and in the morning at work, twice in the afternoon, and a few times before bed. I usually get up once at night too.
I've always been a big water drinker. I have a nalgene that I got several months ago and I bring it with me everywhere. its 32oz and I just drink it throughout the day. Its hard for me somedays though because if i'm out of the office I don't drink as much because I won't have access to a bathroom.
so for example, today I was out of the office and I drank my cup of tea which is maybe 16 oz? and i've had 1/2 of my nalgene.
I just peed for the first time since I left the house this morning. that wasn't ideal.

oh and i've read that you're supposed to sip water not chug it. chugging will bloat you.

@janma529 - I love the water bottles with a straw, so I just take a few sips at a time. I usually move from coffee to water around 9, so 3 hours for 16 oz? Then I drink at least 8 oz with lunch, and the other 8 oz by 2-3.
Like I said, when I first started focusing on it I peed ALL.THE.TIME. I think it takes a while for your body to adjust to more water...
And I pee a lot. As in, it's weird if I leave work & haven't gone four or five times.
