Does anyone here ACTUALLY drink the recommended 8 glasses of water a day? I've been trying to increase my water intake but was wondering if this is an attainable goal on an everyday basis?
I wake up and have a glass, knocking out one for the day. So far today I've had one glass of water and two cups of coffee :X I made a huge pitcher of Crystal Light lemonade at my house and use the 'on the go' packets at work. When I add Crystal Light it makes drinking water easier because it's tasty--- plus it has antioxidants and vitamins. Anyone else ever tried it?
What things do you do to make sure you get enough water each day? Are you able to drink enough water (the recommended amount)?

I'm good for three 32oz. glasses a day, more if I go to the gym. My wife has a terrible time getting enough. Most experts will tell you that coffee and soda don't count even though they're 99% water. I read a book a few years ago about the importance of staying hydrated. It's amazing all the benefits you get from drinking water....especially the pain relief.
When I exercise I get more water too- that's a given.
I found thee other facts about how important hydration is when I was browsing the Crystal Light site...
- Hydration plays a critical role in maintaing a normal body temperature.
- Hydration improves digestion.
- Hydration lubricates joints and tissues.
- Hydration aids in the elimination of waste and toxins from the body.
- Hydration assists with the movement of nutrients through the entire body.
Any other tips on getting enough water? I started drinking a glass as soon as I wake up -- it helps get me going!

Luke 10:27 (Love God Above All, And Your Neighbor as yourself) And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
Matthew 7:12 (Do unto others)
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
Matthew 5:43-48 (Pray for those that persecute you)
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Luke 6:27-29 (Love your enemies.)
But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.

If they find a Christian mistaken in a field which they themselves know well and hear him maintaining his foolish opinions about our books, how are they going to believe those books in matters concerning the resurrection of the dead, the hope of eternal life, and the kingdom of heaven, when they think their pages are full of falsehoods on facts which they themselves have learnt from experience and the light of reason? Reckless and incompetent expounders of holy Scripture bring untold trouble and sorrow on their wiser brethren when they are caught in one of their mischievous false opinions and are taken to task by those who are not bound by the authority of our sacred books.
Isaiah 8:12-13 (NIV) "Do not call conspiracy everything that these people call conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread."

Drinking enough water is a challenge...My daily intake is around 4-6 cups.
There was an article on NaturoDoc website stating that you need app. 1/2 oz water per every pound of your weight, and app. 2.3 oz if you're active physically.
I get in a 1/2 gallon to a gallon a day. I love water and can drink it straight from the tap. I imagine that it is flushing away fat. Technically, that isn't true, but it helps me chug it down!
Water alone is not enough if disease is a concern. If you notice an orange it contains water, nutrients, vitamin C and sugar. I drink sugared softdrink daily with lemonjuice-flavoured icecubes. It is my own theory and through self-experience that you can never get diabetes if you are constantly taking in lemonjuice. I must be the only person in the world to drink sugared softdrink with lemonjuiced-flavoured icecubes and never get diabetes or heart disease if I eat meat pies and eggs now and then. Water being flavoured becomes tasty and encourages more fluid in the body. I believe cancer attacks sugar molecules, and too much sugar can attract all cancers and get flushed out through urine as the body cannot take excess sugar, that's why I drink sugared softdrink. The body cannot also take too much water, so it is exited through urine along with toxins, excess sugar and fat.

I don't think I get 8 glasses a day but doing a lot better than I used to!! Maybe 6-7 a day right now. And I haven't had pop for over 2 yrs!!! And I sure don't miss it.
Actually lately I've heard they increased (and I'm not for certain who "they" is.. I wasn't listening closely enough) from 8 glasses of purified water a day to 9-13!!!!!

Drinking enough water is very good for good health.I do take water very regularly especially very early in the morning before brushing my teeth.
Experts recommend that drinking enough water is very vital to health.At least I take a minimum of eight glasses of water every day. EMMANCO
