I honestly need at least a gallon a day, I'm always thirsty. If I only drank 2 liters a day I'd feel like garbage.

Since muscle is about 65% water, you might want to rethink how much you really need.

In 2008, Jacqueline Henson, a 40-year-old British woman, died after drinking four litres of water in under two hours as part of her LighterLife diet plan.

A gallon is fine but I would guess that if you are always thirsty, you are probably always running toxic(acidic)...I would suggest 1/4 tsp. of armour hammer baking soda twice a day along with 1 tbsp. of Apple Cider Vinegar(with the MOTHER) twice a day... ;)

How about the woman who died after a water-drinking contest!

Jennifer Strange, 28, was found dead in her suburban Rancho Cordova home as a result of water-toxification.

actually hyperhydration is something that i wouldnt steer shy of... id rather be drinking excess amounts of water and pissing 6  times a day than eating.. plus you have no idea how much good drinking alot of water does for your skin + energy levels.

I only have about three litres a day, which is a lot less than a gallon.

At the end of the day, as long as your piss is clear, you're drinking enough water. Any more than this is just unnecessary.

Ah, a US gallon is smaller?

I was always assuming it was UK gallons which I think are about 4.6 litres.

I agree that the obsession with drinking tons of water is absurd. But I just did a rough calculation and figured that, if I include the water I mix in my protein shakes, I drink pretty close to a gallon a day anyway, and that's without even thinking twice about it.

I think your water intake should be close to a gallon a day but if you are putting heavy toxins in your body(hormones, rec drugs, booze etc) then I think you should up your intake...

Probably because they are out earning typical WES fags like yourself that they need to keep adequately hydrated.

That study is regarding people that are DEHYDRATED, and then subjected to excercise. If you basically just drink when your thirsty, you won't be dehydrated. There is a difference between being adequately hydrated and overhydrated to the point of having to run to the bathroom every 1/2 hour.

Never measure how much water I drink a day. After every set I walk to the water fountain and take at least 4-5 gulps. I drink tap water and alcohol. At least a half to one gallon of NYC's finest everyday I figure? Skins soft as a babies bottom.
It is the medications, hormones, and chemicals. in the water :(
