Hey Kristrin...I believe one litre is equal to 33 or 34 oz. So your daily intake should be at least 2 litres.

Hope that helps!

Lisa

PS It's not a stupid question - I googled it! ;)

How can I refuse a challenge like this....I'm in. But since I am not on WW, I will modify my challenge appropriately.

Snack: low sodium v8 and black grapes

Lunch: grilled chicken soup w/veggies, low fat low carb crackers

Snack: low fat cottage cheese and handful of almonds

I usually drink close to 130 oz a day so this is not a problem at all

Breakfast... 2 eggs scrambled and one sausage pattie 3 cups of coffee with cream and sweet and low

Lunch... tosssed salad with romaine, red onion, cucumber, 5 cherry toms, and a boiled egg with ranch. Also some egg salad made with mayo and mustard

Snack... 3/4 cup of chicken salad.

Only 40 oz of water so far and no dinner yet. Also worked all day so no exercise as of yet. :-)Stephanie. Just not eating sugar for 3 and a half day so far is a miracle for me.
