I don't think anyone else got this one, but ounce and oz are the same. oz is a short cut like lb is the same as pound.

I drink more than the average person. I have to take water to bed with me every night - everytime I wake up I need to drink. And I don't drink, I guzzle!

I'll admit.. I'm a water-FREAK. When I first started with the WOE back in Jan 2004(I've fallen off the wagon several times)... it used to be a forced thing just to get the 8 glasses a day.Now I have a liter bottle permanently attatched to my hand. I stopped drinking soda(except for the occasional diet coke when out to dinner) and alcohol(despite what most people think of 20-somethings) isn't really abig part of my life. If I want to have a drink.... and I know it's so high carb.....I have a single glass of wine with dinner. And that's only like once every 2 months. So it's a good balance I think.... and right now, I'm not drinking at all.... trying to stay around induction levels of carbs.

I'm probably getting anywhere from a gallon, to a gallon and a half of water per day, but I also exercise alot, and it's spred throughout the day.

my internist told me a couple of yrs ago that too much water, and it's different for everyone, can actually make you retain water and bloat you! EEk. I could never have that problem though. 64 oz for me is tough to do.
