Gm and happy Thursday 

Starting early and drinking the water first thing upon waking. Always feel better after I drink water. Anyone else start the day with the H20?

@Tinywhisper11 Hi & ty. Step by step :) Yes water wakes me up and energizes me. Re: coffee as water i think it depends on the circumstance, if someone is trying to get more fluids into their menu in general then to my understanding it does count. If cleansing / detoxing etc then only water counts as water, not even unswetened herbal tea counts.

I'm doing an herbal cleanse so it's mainly water, my tea is separate.💖

Do you drink coffee?

For most people starting the day with water is a good idea.  I used to do the same.

Wow that's cool that you get some of your water in before making coffee.

Coffee takes a few minutes. Starting with some water allows me to immediately re-hydrate

rsanfie,  I've heard drinking warm water is even better than cold.

Anybody here tried drinking a gallon of water a day?  It's all over the internet:

@belami2024

Interesting experiment. Personally, I'd say a gallon seems like a lot, but surely it also depends on body size. I'm a man, but smaller than average, so the recommendation would adjust down by 20 to 30%, I guess. That being said, 3 liters per day still seems like a lot for someone like me.

@decisiveBranch2794 Oh yes. I start my day by drinking fresh unsweetened warm lemon water. It feels so refreshing. Good for the tummy too.

Yes! First thing in the morning! Water is so essential, and now that it's summer for me here it's absoutely needed!
