Still to go today850 ml, about 3.4 glasses
Your aim1.6 litres a day

Your pet is never cross, only hopeful. Pale straw coloured pee is the simplest sign you are drinking enough. Tea, coffee and milk count, and food gives about a fifth of your water.

See a GP if you are always thirsty, or pee much more or less than usual.

The working

Six hours into a 16 hour waking day, a 1.6 litre aim means about 600 ml by now. You have had 750 ml, so your pet is bouncing about, with 850 ml, about 3.4 glasses, still to go.
