              Sorry to butt in! just noticed a couple of you were kinda low on water...

              You should be drinking 64 oz PLUS 8oz for every 25lbs you're overweight.

                My book says at least 8 glasses of 8 ounces each water per day. Where do you get this
                PLUS 8oz for every 25lbs you're overweight

                  Its not in the book but it is on the internet and I have heard of that before. wow that means I should drink 102 oz a day. But I got to work my self up to that. Dr. A says 64 oz. So I will stay with my pledge of 67. 6 oz a day.

                      No its not in the book, but it really is best for you to do so for your body to stay hydrated, the bigger you are, the more water you need.

                        Re: December Water Challenge

                        i think the premise here is that the minimum should be 64 oz.
                        yes, some should drink more but from past experience with another challenge ot two, it was suggested that the challenge go by the book at the minimum 64 oz.
                        it's also easier for goalie keeping.

                          Hmmm, Well, I already get sloshy at 64 ounces and I'm trying for 80. I don't think I'm gonna attempt more than that! I have "heard" that extra for each 25 as well, but noone ever knows where it came from. I think if I drank that much water I'd puke!

                            Emma and Jimmie. Thank you both for addressing that. I have heard that also but was going by the book. If we can all manage to commit to 64oz and maintain that, it shoudn't be a problem to increase numbers down the road. All opinions on this subject are welcome and none are ever considered "butting in." We are all here to support each other. Happy drinking.
