Not even close. I drink when I'm thirsty and don't try to get to any defined amount. The only exception is before I go on a long hike. In that case, I pound water the day before so I have a the necessary water to sweat out.

I think I get probably around 4 a day. If I didn't have pop sitting around, I probably would drink more water. I think yesterday I drank like 2-3 17 oz bottles of water, though mostly because I got stuck in the snow and had to do a lot of walking out in the cold.

I drink it a lot when I'm working out.

I can get about six glasses a day, sometimes seven.
Eight only happens after a long workout.

One day I did 64 ounces of water, it took forever.

I'm horrible. I try to drink a lot of water, but I usually only end up with a glass or two.

I like tap water but I always pour a glass of tea or Coke instead. It's just not a thirst quencher for me.

Water's a thirst quencher, but it's so bland. Lol.

I drink about a gallon of water a day.

I drink little other than water. Maybe an iced tea or lemonade when we go out to dinner. Once in a great while, I might have pop, usually nothing but regular Pepsi or Coke. But, most of the time, I drink only water. With so many UTIs and migraines I have to keep hyperhydrated, so I drink water all day long and keep two glasses of water on the cubby over our heads in bed, and we keep a gallon jug of water on the floor in our bedroom every night.

I need to drink more water. It's really good, but I need more discipline.

I will drink water all evening, I don't drink pop or any greasy food before flying on an airplane. Lol

Thinking about drinking 8 cups of water a day just makes me feel bloated. I probably drink about three bottles of water plus coffee and tea.
I try to stay hydrated in Winter and hydration aids my orgasmic life as well!

I drink at least 2 32 oz bottles of water a day, usually closer to 3 lately.

I used to not, though. I used to drink maybe one glass of water a day and around 20 cups of coffee. That makes my kidneys hurt, though....

*blink*

Water? What's that?

Nah, I drink a water bottle of water a day, usually at night though. But most of the time I have coffee, cranberry juice, or milk.

You do get a fair amount oh water from food if you're having fruits and veggies but I supplement with a glass of water or some tea. I rarely actually feel thirsty unless I'm at the gym.

I generally drink just water and hot tea so I probably get pretty close if not over.

I drink about 1.5 liters a day of just water, so that's about 6.3 cups a day.

I drink water when I'm thirsty. I don't try to go for the magic 8 glasses. Not worth it.

I'm with Carrie Ann; I drink a lot of water because I drink tons of caffeine. I don't ALWAYS though, but I get dehydrated and headachey so I try to avoid that.

My husband is always on my butt to drink more. I never really liked drinking (I'm talking about in general, not alcohol). I keep a drink near me at all times, but I don't really keep track. If I'm thirsty, I'll drink, but I don't go crazy with it. If I drink anything, it's usually water or tea. I don't like soda, and I'll very rarely drink juice.

I have a big plastic cup on my desk that I keep full of water all day long. I'd guess I drink 32-40 ounces of water during the workday, and then I'll usually have more in the evening. Water in other foods counts to me, too. A lot of fresh fruit contains a lot of water in it, so I try to have some type of fruit each day, too. I loooooove water.

I don't normally drink any straight water. I drink well over two gallons in coffee, though.

The whole 8 glasses of water a day is a myth. It was originally just 8 glasses of fluid to keep the body hydrated and balanced. And as it said in the article, you can drink too much water and it'll throw your balance off. I probably drink too much fluid each day. lol

I definitely go through my water bottle twice a day so that's 4 cups of water. I'll drink other beverages at meals.

I for sure drink more than 8 glasses of water each day. I probably drink closer to 12. I get really thirsty at meals and will usually drink 3 glasses of water at each meal.

I never focus on trying to drink a lot of water each day, but I do tend to carry around a water bottle with me. I recently bought a pretty neat camelbak water bottle with a bite straw thingie and that encourages me to drink since its fun to drink from.

I don't drink nearly that much, but I have definitely found that in the past when I made the effort I felt way better with all that water in me. I actually drank water instead of coffee for a while to help with all nighters and I've gotta say that it was actually more effective. It's just really hard to stick with it, I never really think to drink water throughout the day.
