I've been up and about since 8am. It's now after 6pm. So far I've drunk 200ml of pop and 300ml of coffee. I'm not even thirsty. Surely this is wrong?

you need to drink more beer SFB.
Your holier attitude to ale will be the death of you.

I just don't like the taste of it 🙁

Usually my first intimation of dehydration is a faint headache 🙁

With the amount of rainwater about you're probably absorbing enough through Osmosis or something.

1400mls of water give or take.

Even though your body compensates by compartment fluids, you'd better drink to look after your kidneys, prostate, lungs and keep your Heart rate lower.

If you have loss of thirst 2morro-call yoru GP or NHS direct.

[i]300ml of coffee[/i]

I see where you're going wrong. At least 1000ml of coffee is needed per day. 😉

You are aware that human beings get a lot of their water from food aren't you?

Have you been eating fruit and veg for instance?

Drink water. I drink 3 litre bottles minimum but that includes a commute to work and then maybe another litre if I run, swim or circuit train later. Put it on your desk and sip.

I dislike water so much, if that's all I have I don't drink. Even when I know I'm dehydrated it makes me want to hurl if I try to choke it down.

You guys measure how much you drink? There are some lives with gaping holes in them.

Drink when you are thirsty, stop when you are not. If your urine is very pale things are probably fine. If it's the colour of Theakston's best all is not well.

Jeez!

yes, that's what I usually drink!

I'm not worried about my health, I'm annoyingly healthy - I just don't understand why my thirst reflex is so lax...

I don't associate drug taking with "living" - isn't it more a way of escaping life ?

Drinking water? Fishes **** in it!!

I have about 5-6 cups of tea and possibly 1-2 tins of diet soda. In general terms, when I'm thirsty, I drink, very rarely whilst riding.
