Anyhow. I'm going to finish the water bottle I have right now and that will be 120 ounces for today. I think I will shoot for 3000 for January.

Sidenote: I have been in the bathroom eight thousand times today.
I know the feeling! LOl Good job everyone! You did well!!

i would love to join and i already have a semi-dodo question. what exactly is the difference between fl. oz. and regular oz.? like...on my 1 liter dasani it's 33.8 fl. oz. and only 1.8 oz. i'm just curious and i assume we're counting fl. oz., right? is that what should be measuring by...right? i just always wondered that and never asked..but anyway..i'm in..if that's okay.!

I think ( but don't quote me on this) that fl. oz are a volume measurement and oz. are a weight measurement. and we are going by volume! =)

the need to hit the restroom every 5 minutes fades after about 2 weeks - then the expression - Peeing like a racehorse - is pretty darn accurate

100 ounces for me yesterday...(about 1 quart low for the day)

What I've done in the past - and there's a thread here somewhre on it... is have a shot glass with 10 pennies in it- where a penny represents a glass of water - everytime i finish aglass of water - i take out a penny.

Other people will put 10 rubberbands on a waterbottle - for eaach bottle of water - they remove a rubberband...

it's be intersting to see how many 64 ounces x 30 days = 1920 ounces -- that'd bea fun ticker to see

I have been hesitating at joining this challenge, because drinking water is the one thing I'm truly bad at. *laugh* I've gone through the majority of my life chronically dehydrated. I have done a lot better over the last few months, but I'm probably still not drinking enough. So, here I am, admitting my weakness and stepping up to the plate. 64 oz. or bust. Maybe that should be and bust.

hey I'd like in on this one too ! I drink 4 500mL bottles a day or at least try to...which I figured out thanks to conversion tables on the net is pretty much equal to 64 oz of water !

so that everyone knows 500mL is equal to 16.907oz !!! But I will use oz's just so people are less confused !

and yesterday was a horrible drinkign day and I think I got two bottles in so like 34oz... boo to me !
