No, I don't have any medical need to do so.

@catter70 Why does your doctor want you to drink that much?

And there was no one left to speak out for me....

Re: Do You Track Your Daily Water Intake?

I do not force drink fluids but always drink at least 3 or more 16 oz bottles of Hint water daily in the colder months plus a 20 oz cup of almond milk in the morning.  Your body should tell you when you need fluids.  2 liters especially in the colder months seems way too much.  If I forced drink that when not thirsty I would slosh around and be bloated.

Re: Do You Track Your Daily Water Intake?

I don't need to take water, but that's all I drink.  I  no longer drink carbonated beverages (Coke, etc).  I drink water with my meals.  I drink tea instead of coffee in the morning.  But I go through a lot of water the rest of the day.  I prefer FIJi water.  I get two packs per week.  I'm so used to bottled water, I have no desire to drink the flavored water that is so popular.

I see a lot of  younger coworkers drinking all day long at their desks, and I also see them running to the ladies room every hour on the hour, not for me.

@Group 5 minus 1 , you're mixing me up with the original poster, I think. If I drank that much, I'd spend the day in the bathroom.

@Marp , you, too, are mixing me up with the original poster. I think compared to others here I drink very little.

I'm told to drink 40oz a day.  Doc told me to include the water in my coffee, tea, soup, etc. as water.

I do not but I do think I don't drink enough so I probably should.
