Are you hydrated?

I thought I had a better graphic but I can't find it. If you google "urine color" and click images, you might be able to find better graphics. Assuming you're interested in this.
Since you've posted these links, I'm always pleased with my...progress.
Good info.

This is the 2nd night in a row that I'm cramming the remainder of my goal ounces in at the last minute. I did so poorly today that I'm counting my 3 glasses of bamboo leaf tea as water. (I need to see that 100% on my water app )Even though I don't add sugar to them, I wanted them to be in addition to my goal intake.

I am not drinking nearly as much as y'all, I think today I've gotten 47oz which is pretty high, usually I get in about 32 oz
But, I checked that chart posted by daviine, and I've been at colour number 1 all day...
Feeling good.
Also, with my increased water intake, my skin looks great... I'm pleased

Well, doing my midnight check in. I didn't hit my goal for the day. Weekends are a little hectic for me. I only got in 71 oz. and most of that was towards the end of the night. Funny because, when I went shopping around 6pm, I had only had one 23.7 oz bottle of water for the day and I felt so dry. My lips felt dry. That was my reminder that I needed to drink more water.
Tomorrow, I'm starting Bikram Yoga and will definitely have to keep my water intake up since I'll be doing a lot of sweating. Actually, I can't wait!

48 oz in! Back on track, but not upping my goal because I wasn't consistent. So, lets try this again. Challenging myself to drink at least 1L per day.

Yet I didn't make my goal. I hit like 25% of my goal. I need to have guidelines for how much I should drink by a certain time. I fell asleep putting my daughter to sleep and woke up after midnight. Too late for cramming--- not that that's good either. Pacing. That's what I need to work on bc I already worked on the major goal--- acquiring a taste for water.

It gives you reminders throughout the day using a "water" sound.

Yesterday I got in 70.7 oz - about 10 oz less than the day before. It was my work out "rest day" so I didn't feel the need to have more. So far I'm at 60.6 oz - it was a work out day for me. I just had coffee so Ill keep that in consideration.
NJoy - Filtered tap water isn't good in your city?
I only got 54 oz in yesterday. I ran out of water and am not expecting a new water delivery until Friday. Had to buy some from Walmart for now. I can NOT be under hydrated while doing Bikram Yoga. I'm sweating gallons.erplexed

I'm in the Atlanta area and the water here has a yucky taste. I'm a bottled water snob. Once you go black, you never go back. Er, well. You know what I mean. Couldn't think of another rhyme.My daughter can drink filtered tap but, she loves ANY water. The rest of us?

NJoy - Gotcha! I'm spoiled only having lived on EBay MUD water - Oakland, and now Portland (no fluoride) water which is rated some of the best in the U.S.

How about once you leave tap, you never go back??
