Not enough. A couple of glasses a day from the tap. I'm definitely working on increasing how much I drink.

I generally drink 8 glasses (cups) a day, but I try to shoot for more. We have awesome tap water so I drink that!

Directly PP I drank a lot of water, but then I started to get exhausted and it slowly turned into a lot of caffeine. I keep saying every day I need to drink more water, guess I will start today! -
I drink either tap or bottled, just not enough. I also drink alot of tea and pop along with some milk. I might be lucky to get two glasses of water down today. -
I usually drink alot of water but recently have been having alot of iced tea instead (not good, but i need the caffeine), i just started cutting out the iced tea yesterday and i got my eight glasses of water in, i prefer tap water, i usually have two cups of tea in the morning and water and iced tea thruout the day -
I drink About 3 sports bottles a day. I drink mostly bottled but I like tap too. I drink iced tea with lunch and dinner And low sugar OJ with breakfast. -
Bottled and tap and I don't usually take in enough. I need reminders like these all the time. -
I drink about 8 glasses of actual water per day plus crystal light. I may have one soda a day and then, of course, the 4 cups of coffee LOL. I drink filtered water, have a filter on the tap.
I love this challenge!
