I'm rarely thirsty I take that to mean I'm taking on enough liquid via food and drink.

While we're on the subject why do some people need to swig water from a sports top bottle during meetings at work? Have glasses gone out of fashion?

I drink enough fluids most days, but not in the form of unadulterated water. Lots of Green tea maybe 4 or 5 huge mugs, 2 coffees, 2 decaf coffees. Rarely do I drink just water.

I nearly always drink out of bottles as its the only way I can make myself not become unwell from dehydration because I can physically monitor my fluid intake and set myself targets.

I drink at least two bottles of water every day. Only take two coffees a day and no caffeine at all after 5pm. I used to have a cup of tea about half 7 but I started walking up in the middle of the night so I stopped taking it. Now I sleep right through and I feel so much better for it x

I mostly drink water, i have a couple of mugs of decaf coffee too. Occasionally a smoothie, wine, orange etc.

I suffer from a very dry mouth and throat due to Sjogrens Syndrome so i carry a bottle of water with me ALL the time and have a sip frequently. However i also have problems with my kidneys so i have to slightly limit my fluid intake. It's a pain and i spend most of my life with a mouth so dry i keep gagging plus needing to pee every hour lol

I only carry lidded cups/bottles in my wheelchair cup holder because carrying open vessels results in spillage. Best case, it looks like I wet myself. Worst case was when I sloshed boiling tea over my thighs. I'm the one with the sports bottle, soz

I'd imagine these days its about knowing your drinking from a safe container but even before then it's just easier to carry water in a bottle. I know how much I've d*unk if I only drink from my bottle.

There’s no evidence drinking excess water does anything except strain your organs and make you pee more. Bottled water makers come up with silly figures but the acid test is the colour of your pee. All food and fluid counts , that water goes in and comes out whether it’s tea, coffee, fruit , fizzy drinks

Drinking water is an excellent idea, BUT 5 litres a day is harmful. Generally speaking adults need about 1,5 to 2 litres of FLUID a day. If it is very hot and/or you do strenuous exercise then you can probably increase your fluid intake to 3 or 3,5 litres a day (depends how much liquid you lose by sweating).10 Mar 2006

Well obviously you need to be discreet with the vodka .

I've got no idea but if I needed to measure my exact intake I'd probably use a calibrated bottle and if possible pour it into a glass.

My mum has just had to carefully measure intake and output of fluid due to heart failure. This involved measured quantities of liquid and a catheter. A relative on dialysis has to limit fluid intake too but that's measured in cups of tea etc.

I'm clumsy too (i have ET) so I'm much safer with a bottle. While working i now have an ipad with me all the time so I'm not allowed an open cup then, nor when using other work devices at other times.
