125 Ounces!?!?!
Happy Wednesday! The internet says a man is supposed to drink 125 ounces of water per day, and a woman is supposed to drink 91 ounces. Is this a joke that somehow the internet has put together, and it's just laughing at me peeing all day long?
Listen, the only things I drink are water and herbal tea. Herbal tea counts as water intake, so that's a plus. But I still don't think I'm meeting my goal, and I have been trying for months. I'm setting times of the day to drink 24 ounces at a time. Thankfully, I work from home, so I can go to the bathroom whenever I please. I should hit the goal with this plan of action.
If I didn't work from home or just had to run errands, are the only options to be dehydrated and feel like garbage or wear adult diapers everywhere? Is this truly a design flaw in humans? I do know the internet seems to be telling the truth because every time I get blood work done, my doctor tells me I need more water. That's with me consuming around 75 ounces per day and not drinking anything but water and herbal tea.
Maybe I will count how many times I pee and get back to you, or just do a blog post on my Mastodon account with a pee pee count update. I would do it on here but I don't want to do that to all the fine folks on Bear. I truly think it would be somewhere around 50 times. This is no way to live, but neither is being dehydrated. Maybe bladders grow like stomachs?
Welp, I just looked that theory up - no, they don't.
Anyway, this post was a weird one. I hope you have a great day. I know I will because I will be hydrated and whizzing!
