I cannot discipline myself to drink 8 glasses of water. I feel I am drowning if I drink that much. Maybe 3 or 4 but not eight.

Yes I do. And sometimes I drink more than that since drinking water is good for our body plus I think it keeps me from getting fat since other drinks (such as softdrinks) are full of calories.

I don't think you need to drink eight classes of water everyday, but at least half that or 6 to 7. To make sure I am always drinking water, I carry a bottle around with me. You be surprise how many times you will reach for it during the day.

water - A glass of water. Drink eight a day.
Water is not something that i like to drink much of. I don't see myself drinking eight glasses of water a day. Now when i was pregnant, i couldn't hold anything else down, so i did end up drinking that much water, sometimes even more in one day.

yes i do make sure i drink 8 or more glasses a day. i use it as part of my dieting lol my husband also tells me that if you drink a lot of water before you eat, you feel full already and so it would mean you eat lesser. although i still drink a lot of water, i cannot diet my food right now since i'm pregnant. i'm even always worried because my body is becoming big again. have to diet real hard after birth lol

I think I CAN discipline myself to drink 8 glasses of water a day. but I'll have to boil more water since I'm drinking more. Anyway, I'm always on the computer and I tend to forget to drink water. Bad, bad...

I wish I could but I can't, and I hate the felling of going to the toilet all the time even on just a few glasses, I just can't even imagine how I would feel if I drank 8 glasses.

I can barely get past drinking 2 glasses of water a day unless I'm really craving it. I barely drink any water at all. I really have to crave it to drink it. Otherwise I won't touch the stuff.

I can drink 8 glasses of water in a day and sometimes, more than 8 glasses. If I am at the office, I see to it that I drink water every now and then. it helps my brain works when I feel drain doing some works.

In summer, I usually drink more than that. But it winter, I drink more hot drinks. Some days pass without even drinking a glass of water. I only remember drinking when I am thirsty.
