Guest guest Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 That is great that you are drinking so much water. I've read many places that if you wait until you are thirsty to drink you are dehydrated... You need to drink water, because 80 % of your body is water and every function in the body needs it. I am so proud of you... You are right, in times of high perspiration and heat, you need even more water. If you take diruetic, caffeine or eat watermellon(also a diruetic) you need twice the amount consumed in those products to replace what you lost from them.... It is good that you drink lots and your body is now used to it and enjoys it..... It will flush out lots of germs and bad stuff. Keep up those good water drinking habits.... With rainy weather, keep lots of extra lights on, lively uplifting music, read a good book that takes you on a journey to another time and place, and get out in the shopping stores, that have lots of bright lights to lift your spirits.......... Judy I got up and double checked and sure enough, my water bottle is marked " 2 Litre " . I finished two of this bottle everyday at work from 7:30am to 4pm. I always come home with almost two empty bottles at 4pm. Then at home, I go through another half a bottle, same 2-Litre bottle. That means I consumed 5 Litre a day. I don't feel ill. Mind you, I don't normally consume this much during the winter months though. But now, I feel thirsty all the time. This wet weather is really getting to me now. .
