Didn’t you ask your Dr this when he suggested it? It’s 2 litres of water a day required to keep bodily functions optimal

You could buy a bigger bottle or a 2 lt bottle that has milliliter markings

Depends on a lot of factors. I’d say your GP would know best. Typically it’s 2-3 litres a day, but you’d need more if you’re breastfeeding or exercising.

I try and aim for x2 750ml bottles of water, but I start my day everyday with a warm lemon water in a 600ml mug to get me started.

i drink around three litres per day. It is recommended that the “average” person needs 2 litres per day.

I’m the same, I always forget to drink water

I drink about 2litre a day which I think is about average

I am a sucker for not drinking enough. I was lucky to drink a full 600ml bottle a day. Now I drink sparkling water. I find I drink for of that and it helps keep me full between meals. I drink roughly 4 600ml bottles a day now

I used to be the same. I bought a 1L see through Decor bottle, which I now take everywhere with me, and now I manage to drink around 1.5L a day, plus drinking 2 coffee and a tea. I didn’t think it would make much difference, but it really does. Being able to see how much I’ve drank seems to help remind me I need to drink too.

I honestly struggle- unfortunately I prefer water in coffee form. So sometimes I realise it’s the end of day and I’ve had none (yet I’m fine not dehydrated)
My mum struggles but she said adding a bit of sugar free cordial really helps.

I drink 2 litres of water a day. I fill a 2L jug and sit it by the sink so it reminds me to use it. I fill my water bottle from this when I go anywhere. Cups of tea or coffee are not included in this count. I recall a friend years ago who was drinking something like 5 litres a day and made herself sick as she was flushing all the electrolytes from her body. So don’t overdo it.

Ot depends if you are pregnant or breastfeeding or neither. The general rule, though, is until you have very pale or clear urine.

Oh you’re meant to do that…. maybe that’s where I’m going wrong.

8 glasses a day is recommended. I myself drink about as much as you and always told I don’t drink enough especially when getting a blood test as my body is dehydrated and blood doesn’t flow as easy.

I *usually* drink at least 2L a day, but my Dr told me I need to try to get 3L a day in. Having said that, I haven’t had anywhere near enough the last few weeks with a lot going on. I find if I have a big glass of water before a coffee, before a meal, it’s much easier to increase my intake. And then small sips as needed.

I drink 2lts a day
I just slip on it regularly so I’m not rushing to the bathroom all the time

Roughly 1.5 Litres I would guess.

Probably about 3 litres, but the most important ones for me are a 500ml drink as soon as I wake up and 500ml at lunch and at dinner, I find it makes a difference to how I feel and I think kidney health

I am filling my water bottle at the start of each day.

I think I drink about a litre and a bit. I probably should be drinking more but then I keep needing to have to go to the loo!!!
