I have to say, i feel a lot better for having switched to water/diluting juice from fizzy drinks, even diet ones, although I am peeing an incredible amount. I could get my own show.

Hotblonde - can you settle an argument, por favor? My colleague at work says that diluting juice doesn't count as water for your 2L a day total... I say this is rubbish.

(It's sainsbury's 'no added sugar' apple & blackcurrent - 65p a bottle - if that makes any difference...)

It does count.

Sebb's already answered your question. I does count, in fact so does tea and coffee.

HAH!

I'm away to drink beer after this, I'll tell you if I feel any different later.

I have now switched to a vast variety of diluting juices.
Not as tasty as Irn bru but i'll survive!

I need to start drinking more water - my teeth are suffering from too much Diet Coke unfortunately, but I've got an obsessive personality so I take on addictions easily. And yes, I am addicted to Diet Coke. Fortunately, I have managed to start buying 2 500ml bottles of water for lunch from Greggs instead of teh coke...but thats only in Glasgow because the Greggs here sell Deveronvale, which I like.

Body 90% water - ergo, a lot very handy to have!

I know what you mean about not noticing anything different. I expected my skin to be beautiful, my weight to decrease a bit and my energy levels to be wonderful!

I think that if you stopped drinking as much and went back to Irn Bru then you would notice subtle differences.

I was doing ever so well drinking lots of water while I was in work and then when I stopped working I stopped drinking as much as the tap water in my kitchen just didn't appeal. I've recently developed a wee bladder infection which combined with a baby headbutting my insides is pretty uncomfy so am making the effort to get 2 litres of water a day in me and I feel less uncomfy now.

Only downfall is having to go to the toilet 5 times a night.

gawd, your water must be bad if it gives you infections and causes child birth. Stick with beer and you should be safer (ALA Cabin Fever)

I've been drinking 2l of water in work every other day. It's taken me 2-3 months to cut fizzy drinks out my diet (making the exceptions with regards to alcohol), and so far I feel a lot healthier and more refreshed. My skin feels less manky and overall I feel very refreshed in work. This is opposed to when drinking only fizzy drinks, I became tired and I generally felt rather unhealthy. The cost of 6 x 500ml bottles of water from Farmfoods is like £1.25, which when you weigh it up to the cost of fizzy drinks and the damage they are doing to you... I guess it may make you reconsider. It does take a solid 6 weeks for your body to get used to only water after "fizzy drink" abuse, but it certainly makes you feel a shit lot better. Also makes you piss like a racehorse. All I need to do now is start drinking only water in my house, but I find tap water a little rancid.

I'm same, drinking around 4 pints of water a day and have done for a good few months now. Makes me feel a lot better, more alert and awake and I feel like I have more energy. Of course it could just be a placebo effect, but when I don't drink much water (usually over heavy weekend sessions) I feel shitty.
