Default Your Water Intake

Considering how important water is to the body, I though that it would be a good idea to use it as this weeks poll

How much water do you drink per day..(not counting coffee, juice etc)

Conversions:

1pt = 2cups
1 pint = 16 fluid oz (US) or 0.473 litre ( l or L )
Imperial (UK) 20 fluid ounces = 1 pint = 0.568 litre

I hate to say this, but my daily liquid intake is as follows:

4 pints of water (of which two are with protein shakes)
4 pints of coffee
1 pint of juice
1 pint of milk
and beer, sometimes

I'm drinking 10 500ml bottles of water daily. Or 5 L, or 10.57 pints.
I'll have milk at dinner.

Milk and beer sounds like an interesting combination...how is it working out for you Mark? lol

Man, if I drank that much I'd need to move into the toilet!

I drink about 2.5-3 litres a day, so 4-6 pints

I am no stranger to the restroom! But I'm lucky in that I've always loved water. I know some people who just can't stand to drink water, my mother being one of them.

Thanks for the poll, it has reminded me that I'm not drinking nearly enough water. I usually down 3 - 5 cups a day, but that's not going to cut it!

im in the 4-8 pints range normally.

i drink 15oz with my protein, 15-20 with my meal replacement, about 12-20oz during a workout, water randomly throughout the day, and i drink about 12oz thoughout the night (i sleep with a water bottle next to my bed because i always wake up with a dry mouth) i usually have to wake up at night to go to the bathroom, but i have no trouble falling back asleep.

how many pints should i be getting a day? (im 6'5" 225 pounds and take cellmass)
