    yes, i know where the toilet is in nearly every store i shop at, haha!

    when i drink a gallon a day, i pee every 20-30 minutes, no lie. half a gallon, i can go an hour or so. which is good, because i'm a massage therapist, so i get to go once an hour in between clients, bahaha!

    LOL!

    I've been drinking about 64 oz a day but have slacked off recently. How early in the morning do you start drinking?

    well DUH. that would be just gross. :eek::eek:

    i usually keep my water jug right next to the bed and start drinking as soon as i wake up. i drink a lot when i'm at work, and at home hanging out, cuz i smoke a lotta pot, and it dries me out.
    (my jug looks kinda like this)

    i like yours bluesafire! :drool5:

    seriously though, i got my jug at wal-mart for like, 3 bucks, and it's really helpful in making sure i drink enough. if i fill it up every morning then i can tell if i'm on target for my water consumption for the day. plus it's less likely that i'll spill it. (i have trouble with water glasses. i'm clumsy.)

    exactly! yay! i feel so much better when i drink a lotta water.

    jai, it takes a LOT of water to be bad for you. the only thing to watch out for when you drink a lot of water is to make sure you also get enough salt. especially if you sweat a lot.

    but you'd have to be drinking water nearly nonstop all day for you to get seriously sick from too much water.

    there was a contest held by one of our radio station like last year or the year before called 'hold your wee for a wii' and some woman drank like a gallon to win a wii for her kids, but ended up dying from over-hydration.

    it's a sad story.

    she had to have drank more than a gallon, or else she had some sort of pre-existing health condition. a gallon of water does not kill a healthy person.

    that is sad though.

    She did win it though!!


    I was talking about some kids that get diseases because of seriously too much water. I heard that woman died since she kept the waste in her body too long.

    welll i thought it was held by our radio stations, but it turns out i was wrong. it was reported by our radio station, i was just remembering it incorrectly. i remembered the name of the contest right though.

    well yeah, if you don't pee anything out, it can be pretty harmful over time. and if you drink too much water too quickly, yes, it can kill you. i didn't realize how short a time they were doing this.

    drinking a gallon throughout the day is quite different than drinking a gallon in an hour and not peeing at all. :rolleyes:
