A lot.....I drink at least a liter when I get home, maybe a liter and a half, plus several throughout the day. Was a big part of my weight loss program when I was trying to lose weight , and it has stuck with me ever since

When thirsty.

There was a study done in the mid-90s that showed that AMERICANS (as opposed to the rest of the world), have ready availability to clean water and should not worry about consumption of water. Drink when "thirst response" hits. Somehow, the "drink X glasses of water a day" became common knowledge, without much real backing, and can actually be dangerous as it flushes the body of nutrients.

I drink a gallon a day, give or take. I use to eat a lot because I wouldn't understand if my body was hungry or thirsty. I've realized over the years that I was replacing water with food and I gained weight. Water helps replenish you after a good sweat and keeps your body working. I've also eaten less and lost weight because I've increase my water intake. I am currently going through withdrawals of smoking cigarettes and water has helped me a lot.

All I really drink i's bottled. In Germany and the water tastes awful I can drink a bit of it but, not much. So bottled water it is until I go back to the US.
