Drinking Water
Did I miss the article or just overlook the advice from the home site about the issue of "HOW MUCH WATER TO DRINK"? DOES DRINKING A GLASS RIGHT AFTER GETTING OUT OF BED MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

Re: Drinking Water
I've heard that you should drink 64 oz. and that you should drink half of your weight in oz. (I weigh 200 lbs. so I should drink 100 oz.). Some of the new research is showing that a good chunk of this comes from your food so that decreases that, but you should always increase with exercise. As for drinking right after waking up, the only positive that I heard about that is that it flushes out toxins that have collected during the night and replenishes water lost during the night.

Re: Drinking Water
I am absolutely terrible at drinking water! I wish I could drink more but I hate having to pee all the time!

Re: Drinking Water
I hate drinking too much water because I have to go to the restroom a lot. I know it's good for you, but too much water is bad for you too. Just like too much of anything is bad. I do like water especially when you just finish chewing mint gum and have really cold water it just makes it so much more refreshing.

Re: Drinking Water
I've heard that one is to drink 8 - 8 ounce cups of water a day, plus an extra for every 25 lbs you are over-weight. I've gone from drinking 13 to 9! I too don't like to spend half my day in the bathroom, lol.
