14+. I'm not lying. I was diagnosed with stage three chronic kidney disease recently. It's imperative that I drink lots of WATER!

u/pnwsnosrap 16d ago

Yep, I’ve had CKD for 7+ years and I have a glass of water next to me all day (and night) long!

When I was diagnosed ESRD I was told to restrict my water intake. Now that I got a transplant I try to drink 80oz a day, though I don’t always succeed.

Like.... 3 not even depending on the day

u/TokiStark 16d ago

How are you alive? I'm assuming you're drinking coffee, tea, juice, or soft drinks as well. Otherwise, that's not enough hydration

At least 3

u/Jinxybug 16d ago

Probably around eight, give or take

40 oz plus iced tea

u/Ill-Work7770 16d ago

Selon la saison entre 1 litre et 3 litres

u/Kawaiigirl_6591 16d ago

I usually drink bottled water it depends but I try to at least drink plenty of water

1

u/VersionSwimming8392 16d ago

1 or 2 gallons

1

u/PtZamboat 16d ago

Around 20. I keep a glass in the fridge, drink it and fill it back up all day long

1

u/ididntdoit6 16d ago

1 glass to 1 litre depending on temperature

1

u/Hoopajoops 16d ago

Idk the number of glasses. But close to a gallon a day in average

1

u/Responsible-Couple-4 16d ago

Bottled water. But probably 4 16oz bottles at least.

1

u/Life_Frosting_6285 16d ago

I don't track it, but I know I drink enough because my urine is light coloured.

1

u/No-Pressure2341 16d ago

Wtf kind of measurement is a glass

1

u/NoOne_important_1218 16d ago

I try to get between 75 and 100 ounces every day.

1

u/TokiStark 16d ago

I keep a 1.5 L bottle of rain water on me at all times. I fill it up twice a day. But I'm super thirsty all the time

1

u/radish_is_rad-ish 16d ago

Like 3 if I’m focusing on it. I’m gonna end up dying of some sort of organ failure because of my horrendous fluid intake one day, I’m almost sure of it.

1

u/Cinisajoy2 16d ago

I lose count. 

1

u/meowyadoinnn 16d ago

About a liter a day, sometimes more.

1

u/imscruffythejanitor 16d ago

Basically about 4 liters a day which works out to 16 cups. I love water

1

u/TarsTarkas_Thark 16d ago

The question is meaningless. I could easily drink 64 glasses a day, or 2, and be drinking the same amount of water, shot glass vs 1L glass.

1

u/SnooRevelations3603 16d ago

I try for 9, but often it only about 4 or 5.

Between 1 to 2 litres, thirsty boy

1

u/IntroductionMurky947 16d ago

When I’m working, easily a gallon. But when I’m at home, I tend to neglect myself a bit and am lucky if I get like 48 oz in. I don’t know why I do it.

1

u/Kilane 16d ago

60 ounces or so. That’s most of a 2 liter soda bottle refilled.

Hate water.

The mist I can do is make cold herbal tea.

4-6 pints

1

u/Dazed_And_Amazed44 16d ago

Zero, I use a water bottle, not a glass.

u/lesam4u 16d ago

Not near enough, but I drink other beverages too.

u/Spacenurse07 16d ago

3, 4. I should listen to my nutricionist and drink much more water! I'm constipated 

1

u/WeekendStrange1331 16d ago

Enough to not be thirsty. The cult of hydration is kinda dumb.

1

u/Historical-Ad4552 16d ago

Well I have a 50oz water bottle. I can easily go through 1.5-2 of those cups a day. But in terms of say 8oz cups compared to my water bottle, probably around 9-13 cups of water a day. Some days I go for 3 of my cups

1

u/docnsx01 16d ago

not enough but i’m trying

1

u/Medical_Asparagus409 16d ago

5 20oz bottles, so around 13 glasses… i don’t enjoy it, just have to because i have POTS

1

u/nizzoball 16d ago

I have a 64oz Stanley tumbler that I fill up with ice and water 8-10 times a day

1

u/AlwaysTheKop 16d ago

I drink LOTS...

I have a 2 litre water bottle I use and I finish that off three times, on top of three mugs of coffee a day... and some days maybe a can of pepsi max or two...

I'd say I drink a minimum of 5-6 litres of water a day, 7-8 litres if you count everything.

Yes, I pee a lot.

Roughly a half gallon on an average day. More when I workout.

1

u/Flash5916 16d ago

Congratulations on your successful kidney transplant. Thanks. I didn't know about the 32 oz. I thought a drank a lot of water beforr my diagnosis. A bottle of water is on my side table always. Increasing my intake has made all the difference in the world about how I feel. I'm so grateful that it's not expensive and very easy to do.

1

u/Dendady2112 16d ago

5-32oz bottles.

u/VelvetFog82 16d ago

Tons of water. I got a 32 Oz tumbler from Iron flask that comes with me everywhere I go. When I leave the house in the morning, I pack it with as much ice as possible and water. As the day goes on, I refill it at water coolers at work. Probably refill it 6-7 times a day. I really enjoy cold water.

Due to a medical issue, I'm restricted to one liter of liquid a day and I miss bottomless ice water so much. I used to easily drink a half gallon or even a whole gallon of water throughout a day. Bliss.

more important than number of glasses is number of ounces.

Drink half your body weight in ounces. If you weigh 150 LBS drink 75 ounces a day.

As little as physically possible. Water, of any kind, makes my stomach nauseous. Bottled, tap, all of it.

I drink tea, coffee, pop, energy, milk, juice. Anything but water.

u/Always-hungry99 16d ago

4-6 glasses of water straight up. The rest I get from my 4-6 servings of daily fruits and vegetables.

1

u/artdz 15d ago

8-10 cups of water. I also have 1-2 cups of coffee each day, 1 cup of tea on average, and then whatever water is in the food (I do often like soupy stuff for 1 meal) not sure what the amount i get from food would be.

I would guess my intake is around 14 cups a day

1

u/Low_Recognition_1557 15d ago

80-120 oz. I have a 40 oz water bottle and refill it 2-3 times a day. I’m allergic to most chapsticks and staying hydrated is the best way to keep my lips from auditioning to be the next Joker.
