it's literally not even difficult to drink a gallon of water in a day

>americans need motivation to drink water

>americans think drinking water is a "challenge"

Honestly, I don't really.

I had kidney stones because I didn't drink enough, so I really should, but I just forget about it.

I barely get thirsty.

Lemonade. I basically drink nothing but minute made lemonade from a frozen can. Shits good but has a lot of sugar. Worth

>motivated to drink water
Drink water when you're thirsty. Don't force yourself to drink it. Drinking a gallon of water in a day is retarded. Even if you're one of those idiots who think you should drink 8 8-oz glasses of water a day (you don't really need to do this), that's still only half a gallon (a gallon is 128 oz)

To pass the time. Between whatever I'm doing I'll sip down some water or if I'm waiting. I'll end up drinking a gallon of water a day afterwards.

Weird seeing this thread, my professor actually had some really bad health issues recently because he was drinking too much water. Got to the point where his organs were shutting down.

I think he said he was drinking like a gallon and a half a day, but it's not so much the amount a day but rather an hourly basis. The kidneys can only process about a liter an hour, more than that will cause problems

>>8639503

If you're thirsty you're already dehydrated, idiot.

>>8639503
No need to be motivated, the weather is hot here so my body naturally needs water. It's as simple as having a water bottle or glass available and drinking it

>>8639622
You can definitely hurt youself drinking 1-2 gallons a day. I was doing it for several months and essentially became a paranoid schizophrenic. Finally my family intervened, held me down and bound my hands and feet and hauled me to the emergency room. They did blood tests, I'm certain looking for drugs at first but I was clean. They diagnosed a severely low sodium level and said I was in imminent danger of seizure or even death. They restricted water intake and in a few days I was normal.

The terrifying thing was while it was happening to me, I thought I was completely normal and everyone else was fucked up.

>>8639575
That's a funny dog.

>>8639503
When I was a kid I loved tea and would always have a cup around so I was well hydrated.

Now as an adult I have some chronic GI issues which went untreated for a bit and I have difficulty swallowing so I need to drink a lot of water to eat.

>tfw local wings place has challenge to eat 15 of their hottest wings in 3 min with only 1 drink

>tfw can handle that much heat in that period of time but can't swallow that much food in 3 min, or even with just 1 cup of water no matter how well hydrated I am

Drinking water is so easy the problem for me is I have to walk to another building or buy a supply of water because my filter broke.

>>8639684
Did they help you address what got you in that state [of mind] in the first place, too? Were you diagnosed with any disorders?

Yeah, drinking too much water, just like it was explained in the post. Read much?

>>8639647
>If you're thirsty you're already dehydrated
nice meemee

What kills me is that this eight to ten glasses of water a day bullshit was some old-ass offhand bullshit recommendation that ALSO INCLUDES FOOD.

So basically if you are a normal person and don't eat nothing but dehydrated fruit and uncooked rice, you don't need to drink more than one or two glasses of water per day, unless you just happen to be thirsty.

Chugging a gallon of water daily just 'cause is a sign of profound ignorance. Pick up a book, you useless cunts.

Eat thick cut salt and vinegar chips because they're delicious and will force you to chug water like a steamboat. Exercise has the same effect. After enough exercise and chips, like me, you will be addicted to uncut H2O.

You took the red pill; you were out of the machine of mass delusion. They "cured" you with Jewish "medicine" by putting you back under the delusion of the masses. What you saw is reality, but everyone around you has convinced you that you were the delusional one.

Ever wonder why the Jews keep pumping everyone up with Coca-Cola and McDonalds. Once a man returns to his natural state free from the Jewish hand he sees the world for what it is, an elaborate play acted out by billions of people who are controlled by a few Jews playing life on God mode.

>>8639836

The truth or falsehood of a statement is independent of the person speaking. Stop attacking people and focus on the content of what they're saying. By claiming, "You can't speak on this subject because you aren't a doctor," effectively makes doctors out to be these special holders of truth that they aren't. You treat doctors the same way a Catholic treats priests.

Hmmm.... I wonder what would happen if someone stopped spending all their time trying to forget about how much their sucks. What would they realize?

REALLY MAKES YOU THINK

>>8639872

>doctors aren't an authority on diseases

Not what I said.

Doctors are authorities on diseases, but that doesn't preclude me from understanding the basics of medicine.

You treat MDs as though they are priests with a connection to the God of divine medical information. They're not. They are smart people who work really hard, but don't have magic powers. Most of them aren't even that smart. I'm not that smart yet I was the smartest person among my high school friends. 4 of those friends are now MDs in residency. I also watched surgeries and talked to many surgeons and anesthesiologists my senior year of high school. I can tell you that they are neurotic and human as the rest of us.

You don't have to be genius to understand chemistry, biochemistry and human physiology. If you spend enough time reading and understanding the right information you would have as much knowledge as a doctor. Spending time understanding information is how doctors are made. Just because they got their information from high school, university, medical school, and residency doesn't make the information on the internet any less true.

I was joking about the whole jew meme. You're actually retarded for seeing Jews as the reason your life sucks. Even if the world is controlled by a cabal of 13 families that's irrelevant.

>>8639927

>All I'm reading is the doctor was wrong but I'm right.

You suck at reading then.

I'm saying that doctors are right and anyone else can be right if they read the literature. If I read and understand enough medical literature I would know as much as any doctor.

>Perhaps you could post some facts to support your opinion, doc.

Oh shit, did you think this: >>8639774 was me? I don't give a fuck about what this guy was trying to say. My point is that you shouldn't dismiss him by saying, "You aren't a doctor, stop acting like one."

You finally came out and said, "Perhaps you could post some facts to support your opinion, doc." This is what you should have said in the first place.

I'm not trying to be a dick, I just want you to realize that that is the best way to have a conversation. Never attack people, tell them to give you proof to support their claim. This is how you can tell whether or not someone is lying. If you ask a liar for proof they will have to appeal to fallacious reasoning, something you can detect if you have a trained ear. Go read the wikipedia entry on sophistry and you'll see what I mean.

I know, dude. I just realized it a week ago and in conjunction with pot have been flexing my power levels to massive heights. I'm realizing things that are outside the human paradigm. I'm not joking.

I can see things known to the strangest autists, but I continue to walk around and talk to people as though I'm completely. It's fucking awesome.
I feel like I've discovered the ring from LOTR and can use it to do anything I want. I know I'm not delusional because I've already used my power to fuck 15 girls in the last week. I was a virgin before that. It's fucking incredible. Don't worry though, I plan on going to Mordor to destroy my power and show humanity the truths I've uncovered in my beautiful autistic mind.

are you asserting that your low sodium level made you into a paranoid schizophrenic until it was treated? Low sodium level can cause altered mental status and you may present similar symptoms because of the confusing but it isn't going to give you paranoid schizophrenia, even temporarily.

I'm hijacking this retarded thread because I recently considered quitting soda and I wanted to know if lemon juice + honey is healthy at all or if it's just replacing one sugar with another and pretending it's good for you, like people do with eggs.

not necessarily as good as straight water

>>8640562
Are you serious? That's awful. Fuck I hate living in a world where food isn't actually the food it's called, it's just cleverly repackaged other, cheaper foods.

LONDON

Water is so much easier to drink through a straw. I just get a refillable 44oz cup from a gas station and drink three 44oz cups of water.

>>8640588
Just read the ingredients, and/or don't buy shit honey. Not all honey has added sugar to it. But all honey is sugar, as in glucose and fructose. The internet can tell you all about how (real actual) honey is better than table sugar. But it's still sugar. It's how bees eat; it's straight energy.

If you want flavour in your water, try adding fruits to it. Lemons are good (but acidic), strawberries, some people add cucumbers, apples, so on and so forth. The water will take on the flavours of the fruits subtley, and then you'll have (bloated) fruit to eat after you finish the water.

Fruits have natural sugars in them too (sort of like honey), but generally they are considered to be good sugars, and the nutritional benefit more than makes up for it.

Not all sugars are bad, but all sugars are sugar. Minimizing sugar intake is good, minimizing added processed sugars is best.

I highly encourage you to do some googling.

>>8639553

Lots of people need to work outside for their jobs, and there are plenty of places where that means working in hot weather. Making sure you don't lose too many electrolytes is also important, but those electrolytes should be replenished in a solution that also replaces the water you lost.

>>8639745

>Chugging a gallon of water daily just 'cause is a sign of profound ignorance

A gallon is certainly excessive, but only having one or two glasses of water per day seems like a bad idea as well

>>8641137
As someone who has worked in both a warehouse and construction that's utter bullshit.

Yeah, we have forklifts in the warehouse. But there are still times that we have to pick up and move materials, boxes, etc, by hand. And if the warehouse isn't air conditioned (which is often) you still break a serious sweat simply driving the forklift. It's not a leisurely drive down a country lane, you have to make good time or your ass gets fired.

As for construction, sure, we have cranes, backhoes, and power tools. But you still have to move material by hand when you're loading or unloading the crane. And power tools themselves can be very tiring to use. They're heavy and you have to keep a very strong grip on them to counteract the power of the motor. Even using something like a nail gun gets tiring because you're lifting that weight at arm's length over and over and over again. A big grinder is especially tiring given its weight and how carefully you need to control it.

You could start off with some honey and make the amount smaller every week or so. Also, are you planning on drinking water with lemon juice and honey added, or straight lemon juice with honey added, or some sugary lemon-tasting juice AND honey added? These three have pretty different calorie amounts, and the lemon juice+honey seems to be acidic as fuck. Personally, I'd try to go with the first one, since if it's something you drink a lot it should be kinda mild.

2 weeks of this incredibly strict regimen and your body will recognize that it can make you want water without needing to process 50gs of sugar and you'll start getting thirsty more and won't feel satiated without water.

I could only estimate, but at the time I thought it was 1-2 gallons. Could have been on the upper end of that and as the sodium deficiency began to affect my mind it could have even been more than 2 gallons. This was over a several month period. The medfags did a bunch of tests to determine if anything else could be responsible for the dangerously low level of sodium and concluded it was caused by overhydration. After several days of restricted water intake while hospitalized, the sodium levels returned to normal range and the mental symptoms disappeared, as well.

So, I don't know what to tell you. After exhaustive tests, the medfags concluded overhydration to be the culprit. Don't believe it? I really don't give the slightest flying fuck.

>>8641881
how much water are you drinking????

this is the first sign of water induced schizophrenia

Setup a path of least resistance for yourself:
Don't buy any pre-packaged drinks. They're all unhealthy and overpriced anyway.
Now when you get thirsty the only option will be water.

I probably drink more than a gallon a day usually

idk I just do it cuz I'm thirsty. no need for a retarded challenge. just put down the Mt. Dew fatty

>>8640676
Whoa, slow down there, fella. Y'all're usin' bigger words than we're used to 'round here!

If you just drink when you're thirsty then you're fine.

I drink from a 750ML bottle easily 4 or 5 times a day, 750ml is roughly 3 cups or so also.

Just get a squirt/workout bottle etc, fill it up again everytime it's empty, and while you're sitting at your PC or doing whatever just take a sip or two every now and then, don't chug it etc unless you really are that thristy. Before you know it you'll have drank like 5 or more a day.

>>8642512
And of course you'll prob piss a good bit but again, if you're just looking to start drinking water and replace soda etc, this is a pretty good way to start imo.

And again, the keyword here is to sip.

I remember it as well. I think it was a response to someone saying they had too much salt in their diet, and started having health issues as a result.

My diet is such that I can't retain water. My disease is such that I need water to flush out shit, and such that can dehydrate me if shit goes bad. I also have no medication, so if I have a headache, I drink more water or tea, if sick. 3-4 L are especially easy if I work out.

In my office I sit next to one of those officey water machines

I swear I go through the whole container daily just because it's so easy to just grab an ice cold cup when I feel like procrastinating

So maybe do a similar thing, put a fridge with water next to you and whenever you feel like procrastinating condition yourself to get a glass

I drink almost no water which i'd like to change. But i'm pretty lazy and when I drink much it seems to come out of me almost straight away and I can't be bothered going to piss every 10 minutes. If I didn't have that problem I could quite easily get through 2-3L a day.

Your body hates you for drinking when you're not thirsty.

>>8646437

When you're thirsty your body is already dehydrated.

>Although everyone experiences thirst from time to time, it plays little day-to-day role in the control of water intake in healthy people living in temperate climates.

>Because of their low water reserves, it may be prudent for the elderly to learn to drink regularly when not thirsty and to moderately increase their salt intake when they sweat.

>During exercise, individuals may not hydrate adequately when allowed to drink according to thirst

>Recommendations are for child athletes or children in hot climates to begin athletic activities in a well-hydrated state and to drink fluids over and above the thirst threshold.

so thirst does not mean dehydration and being dehydration does mean you will be thirsty. case closed

Nothing there actually negates the claim that thirst means your body is already dehydrated.

Christ, people still get gout? I can remember old fucks in my family having it, but I thought it had been superceded by one or another popular food allergy. Be careful, you just might start a new hipster trend where everyone has gout and your medicine rises 10 fold in price. Gout might just become hipster gluten intolerance.

>>8647184
>Christ, people still get gout?

Yup, its more common than people think, especially with the amount of meat consumed these days. But it's treatable with diet and exercise for most people and the daily meds is pretty cheap anyway, at leat here in bongland.

This is a warning for all of you out there, eat a balanced diet and do exercise! Or run the risk of getting gout and skipping out on beef, lamb, turkey, fatty fish and all seafood AKA ALL THE GOOD FOODS. NO FUCKING ALCOHOL ALLOWED EITHER

>>8639503
Sometimes I'll get thirsty and drinking water is a good way to satisfy that thirst.

A refillable water bottle is pretty far down on the "useless shit that feeds into the capitalist machine" list. She's advertising a bottle that cost maybe a buck, maybe just a washed milk bottle, which she drew on with two markers she probably had around and fills with the most basic substance that you need to live for less than a penny a day.

>>8641122
>>8641221
She posts pictures of water bottles to intentionally get positive attention while you post memes to intentionally get negative attention. Of these two behaviors, which is more annoying, less original, and less healthy?

>>8648554

>>8648623

>>8648636
Depends on the job, but I think most would permit it as long as it isn't in direct sight of customers in a retail/service job.

>>8639503
Holy fucking shit, a gallon of water a day is overkill. Honestly. Even the "8 glasses" mantra is inaccurate. It's more like a 4 to 6 minimum depending on air pressure, atmospheric moisture/dryness, physical activity, and any biological factor due to your own body and habits.

Unless she's going hard all day, this girl is going to get water poisoning. She's going to be so bloated from moisture retention. It would be like fucking a giant water balloon and if you go too hard she'll burst into a fucking whitewater rapid and sweep you out the door.

>>8639786
To be honest, I understand water to have minor healing capabilities. Whenever I'm feeling 'off' in any way, drinking some water ALWAYS helps, even if just a little bit.

I suppose it is a primary fuel for our bodies, but like I said, too much water can be like flooding the engine in your car by giving it too much gas.

>>8639503
I always have water beside me wherever I'm sitting/working. If I get myself food and/or feel thirsty, I won't get a drink, because I know I have water to drink, and nothing quenches thirst better than water itself.

I still drink stuff like tea and chocolate milk once in a while, but I try to mostly drink water. Makes it easier to focus on the nutritional content of the meals I make too. Everything goes with water, water's neutral, it's a palette cleanser and a mouth cleanser, you can always swish it around to clean between your teeth and on your tongue after a meal for fresher breath.

This what the fuck. Jesus my ex's dad was some TOR playing fat fuck who 'hated the taste of water' (was actually his disgusting fucking mouth that he was tasting). So he could only drink water with shitty knockoff brand koolaid packets.

I just normally have a glass of water with anything I drink. I like being able to wash away things like coffee and soda so I don't (further) stain/damage my teeth. Also being hydrated in Arizona is kind of related to >>8639517's post as well

Nut juices too, which do have calories but they're mostly just water.

Yeah I bet.

drink a glass or two with each meal, then extras if/when you get thirsty throughout the day. More if you're highly active/at the gym. This isn't a fucking hard concept.

I just fucking do it. It's so natural. Pour a cup of water, usually about 12-16 ounces, and gulp it down in one go. I do it whenever my mouth starts to get dry, or I start getting a headache. I never let myself get noticeably thirsty because I hate that shit. I'm always stopping at water fountains at the park or the beach.

Make no mistake, I'm still fat, so drinking a lot of water doesn't automatically make you healthy. I just hate dehydration.

yeah 10-15 years ago it was the current medicinal thread of "drinks 2 liters of water a day it's healthy (even if you're a short guy who doesn't do sports and lives in a cold country", it got debunked later on but some people still believe it

Ok now that we've debunked the myth on how much water should be taken during the day, the question remains from what it should be taken?

Water bottle or glass. Atm I'm sticking with pic related bottle as well is everyone else and their grandma, but I'm ready to be red pilled on why to switch to glass.

I literally will drink over a gallon a day if I dont stop myself when I have my good water bottle, pic related. 1 liter. I have filled it up 6 times one day, but I average 3, only cause I set that limit now, but I will drink half a liter just on the bus ride to school now, in addition to my morning coffee.

When I go to a restaurant, soda or water, I always get 3 or more refills for my drink, while others i eat with get one refill at most.

I dont know if I have an issue or what, but drinking enough water has never been an issue for me.

the more water you drink, the less sodium your body has and thus the more water you need and repeat and repeat.

>>8639622
Yeah people don't realize you can die from drinking too much too fast.

My dad nearly killed himself drinking too much water in too short a time period. It throws off your sodium levels and all your minerals. You could end up comatose or worse. I saw with my own eyes how he was twitching and irritable and completely not himself after about 85-101oz in a 3-5hr period.

Nurse said she had never seen someone with sodium levels that low who was still awake - let alone able to walk and talk still.

>>8652400

>>8639503
I never had problems with drinking my 1.5 liters. When I am training then I am drinking way more than that too. And carbonated water is the best thing ever.
