ROFLOL!!!!


Yeah, right 123oz sure...(and I'm sure its more since not only did I go for about an hour walk, I mowed the lawn for an hour in pretty hot weather *and* I plan on going to Bodyflow for an hour tonight).

Well mine was relatively low compared to the rest of you, at 91oz.


Interesting link Robyn, thanks for sharing.


I think this calculator works on a daily calculation- depending on your workout....but if we're realistic here and you're working in the garden- in the shade you'll probably be needing less water than if you're running down the park path in the sunshine! Deep down you know when you need your water, and how much you need.


I do remember hearing a rule of thumb once, other than the 'average' 64oz....it was to drink half your body weight in water (ie. 140lb drinking 70oz)....just another thought!


Again, thanks for the link Robyn, it's always good to be reminded to drink up!
