Too Much Water?

[aprilmac]

Im not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but I will anyway.
Does anyone know how much water is TOO much? I have been chugging water whenever I get a craving, and that really helps. So far today, I have had 10-16.9oz bottles of water, i dont think that is too much so far, but the night isnt over yet.
Any feedback is really appreciated! Thanks!

I would think that as long as you aren't forcing it, it shouldn't be bad...I mean, I have heard of bad things happening to people who drank too much water, but they were chugging out of a 5 gallon container.

agree with chicagogirl. you are OK as long as you aren't drinking gallons at a time and forcing yourself. i believe you have to drink ALOT before renal shutdown happens, and that is so rare, anyway. spacing water out and drinking it steadily over the course of a day is the way to go.

Yup, I've heard that its fine as long as you are spacing it out. I think the only time its a bad thing is if you're drinking a ton of water over an hours time. So you're probably good to go. That's a lot of water to get in! Good job!

Thanks so much everyone! Now I can feel good about all the water I have been drinking lately!

I don't know how much water is TOO much - but we are drinking about 5 liters a day (each) in our house and there are no problems... (except a line for the bathroom ! )
