How much water do you drink a day? This includes coffee, tea, lemonade and such. Could you drink only 1 liter a day? Mom and I have different issues - she drinks too much and I don't drink enough. Just bought her a new water bottle so she doesn't have to measure for 1 liter, her new limit for a while.

One liter seems a little restrictive, no? I bought a one-liter bottle of water on the way to work this morning and finished it before noon...plus three cups of coffee...plus nearly another liter of water at lunch...and I'll probably drink another half liter before the end of the day....so 2.5 liters for the day maybe, plus 2/3rds liter worth of coffee...

Joe : It is very restrictive. A few years ago the dr had my mom on this and salt tablets. Her sodium is low. This time just the water restriction.
 
Hmmm. As for me, I drink about 1/2-1 cup of coffee in the morning and probably less than a liter a day of water or anything else. A large tea/water from Sonic will last me all day.

Im not sure how much a liter is. I have a 16oz cup i drink w water and I try to do 2 before 2 pm. I drink 1 large cup of coffee probably 12 to 14 Oz every morning. I drink another 1 to 2 16 Oz water every evening.
Then toss in the occasional rita or adult beverage if I go out.
I do drink less water on weekends when im not sitting at this desk and easy access to the potty 🙃

I don't drink a lot of things besides water on a daily basis. I drink 2 qts a day of just water. I fill my qt sized bottle twice and finish it. Anything else I drink on occasion is just extra. They say half your body weight in ounces for most people.

I don't drink enough water and my dr has been getting on me. I will drink ice tea but just hard for me to drink a lot. If I am at a restaurant I have no problem but at home it's a different story.

I am bad about not drinking enough water, Unless I am exercising, and then I do. I don't like plain water, so I add the Country Time sugar free powder ( you can buy the 'sticks' in packages , at Kroger), to water, and drink more. I try for 4 -6 cups a day, but know it needs to be more.

Probably 2 liters. This includes (1) 12 ounces of coke zero and the rest is water. I had kidney stones and I never want them again. Had a large one on both sides and needed lithotripsy.

What I do is look at my pee every time. That tells about how much I need to drink. I try for clear pee but usually I need to drink more. But look at your pee.
