Does carbinated water with sugar and cafeene count? If so, 3-4L. If not, about 8 oz, sometimes. (glass before bed)

About 2 liters of just water. Then, add in whatever I drink in milk/orange juice/iced team, which probably adds in another two liters.

soft drinks dont count, gatorade, powerade, soda, coolaid, crystal light do not count as pure water.

And, I'm sure the stuff you drink doesn't count as "pure water" either..
So, it should be 0 for everyone.

That seems just about right for me on a warm day if I'm not mostly sedentary.

huh? water is water. water is not juice, water is not artificially flavored and water is not artificially colored. My bottle says.... "AQUAFINA: PURE WATER - PERFECT TASTE PURIFIED DRINKING WATER 1 LITER" So what again are you sure about? Are you trying to argue that water isnnt water? im really confused.

4 or 5 solid sessions during the work day. ANother couple at night. The people that drink more are likely bigger so the bladder is likely larger too.

no and no.

tap water, bottled water, spring water etc = water + vitamins + minerals

soda, soft drinks + liquor = sugar, preservatives, artificial chemicals, colors and flavorings
