WW - water requirements...

[lillygator]

What is the amount per day? I am thinking 8 glasses but how many oz in each glass...and does anyone know - conversions? My water bottle is .5L....

The standard is 8 glasses a day, with a standard glass being 8 oz. So that is 64 oz. a day or 1/2 gal. Now, I think that is the standard for the average person. A person weighing a bit more may be able to up the water intake a bit since it takes more to keep yourself hydrated.

Here is the conversion of ounces to liters.
1 ounce [US, liquid] = 0.0295735 liter

So for the day: 8 glasses (64 oz.) would be 1.9 liters.

You would need 3.8 of your water bottles to make the standard for the day.

Hope this helps.

Remember that you can also count non-caffienated beverages to your 8 glass requirement. It makes it a little bit easier.

thanks for the info...in my "points tracker" they have the boxes to mark off for water and I have been counting a full bottle as one box...
