    64 oz is the minimum, the bare minimum!! Can you do more? Drinking water not only helps with basic hydration needs, but also flushes toxins from your system and boosts your metabolism for better weigh

You need a minimum if three cups but should shoot for 64 oz (8 cups). I'm in TX too. W the heat you have to really stay hydrated.

TY:-)

Drinking water not only helps with basic hydration needs, but also flushes toxins from your system and boosts your metabolism for better weight loss, try getting between 90-120 oz a day, especially since you are in Texas where it is so hot. You might also consider keeping your electrolytes up with low calorie Gatorade , coconut water or other fitness drinks. Water, it is sooooo important all!! :)

I've never been one to measure or be concerned w/ what I should be drinking or consuming.I just know the approximate of what I should be getting in & I listen to my body. However after realizing i might b dehydrated i thought i might ask:-) My stats r as follows: sleeved 9.20.12. I'm down 90 lbs so I'm now 158lbs w/ only 28lbs until my personal goal.
