Lovin’ my new Nathan stainless steel water bottle!

steel_flip_straw

After the SIGG bottle fiasco ( read here and here ), my family got hooked up with new water bottles.  My 3 year old got a klean kanteen (pink, of course – she’s 3) and my husband and I got Nathan bottles.  We are all lovin’ them.   For some reason, I’m drinking WAY more water than normal – even toting my bottle to work, the mall and the park and I noticed that when I have it with me, my daughter asks for drinks.  The only reason I can think I like my new bottle better is that it has a straw lid instead of a wide mouth.   Whatever the reason, I love it and my newly hydrated skin is loving it, too.  Nathan stainless water bottles are :

  • Made with 18/8 (food grade) stainless steel
  • Chemically inactive material that doesn’t pore or crack – no bottle liner needed
  • 100 percent recyclable
  • 100 percent BPA-free
  • Long-lasting and durable
  • Available in 500 and 700 mL

Even better news is that I have 3 to give away – so you can get yourself hydrated, too!

    Unfortunately, very little.

  2. Theresa Shafer says

    I drink at least 30 oz per day. sometimes I drink 60 and even 90. On average I drink 45 oz a day.

  3. I drink approximately 66 oz of water everyday, give or take an ounce or two.

  4. Jeffrey Beckett says

    I drink about 48 oz., mostly in the form of tea.

  5. seriously lately its been more than enough- at least filling up 8 or 9 glasses 20 oz- its humid and I get headaches when I get dehydrated so I try to stay full

  6. I probably drink 24 oz of water a day.

  7. Margaret Smith says

    I try to drink between 6-8 glasses of water per day. I’m always bringing a bottle with me when I go to work or I’m out of the house. Would love to win a nice bottle like this. Thanks.

  8. I really don’t drink a lot of water. I prefer filtered water, usually from a convienent plastic bottle. I only drink one a day. I know I should have more, but water is so expensive these days and I feel bad for all the plastic waste.

  9. Great information! Thank you for sharing about these stainless steel containers. They are pretty as well as functional. I would love to receive one of your free giveaways. I like what you said about drinking more water because of the straw. I think I would too.

    I do not drink nearly enough water on a regular basis! I fill a *plastic* half gallon container every day. Days that exert more energy either by exercising or work/playing outside, I need to refill it. Other days, if I’m drinking other beverages, or if I’m working indoors in air conditioning, I might only drink a few ounces of pure water.

    I’d like to get a bottle for each of my family (4 children) instead of all sharing off of my jug. I think we’re passing ill germs around.

  10. I drink about three or four glasses a day>> not a water fan, but this is great for me because I did not drink water at all!
    Now I am not wanting to buy any drinks that are in plastic because they are “all” shipped in the backs of hot trucks to the stores and “all” the problems of hot plastic leaching into the drinks inside are done before we even make our purchase!!
    Bless you for having this wonderful contest to help us hydrate safely and thank you for the chance to win

  11. Maybe 2 glasses not enough I know but I drink tea too.

  12. I don’t drink nearly enough water. I drink about two gallons of tea, and only end up with about 8 oz of water per day. Sad, really.

  13. I’m guessing about 32 oz a day.

  14. Patricia Hill says

    Just water-I drink 24 ounces. I also drink coffee and iced tea.

  15. Alicia Webster says

    To be perfectly honest, I have no idea how much I consume because it is the only thing that I drink. I refill my cup a million times a day, not because I drink a million cups of water, but I like lots of ice, and when it melts, I automatically add more. If I had to guess, I probably drink a half-gallon per day?

  16. Not enough (blushing)

  17. Of all the liquids I drink during the day, about 40 oz. of it is plain water. The rest is a variety of green teas and my morning joe.

  18. Right around 60 oz. More at work than at home since I have a 16 oz cup that needs filling each break.

  19. I drink about 40 oz. I used to drink a TON more when I had a water bottle that I loved!

  20. I Driink about 2 20 oz bottles

  21. I drink on average 32 oz of water a day, the rest is probably about a gallon of coffee, hey there’s water in that, right? I am trying to drink more water, but those plastic bottles although convenient are expensive and leave me feeling really guilty for filling up our landfills.

  22. I drink about 2 quarts of water each day.

  23. susan varney says

    four 16 ounces bottles mverno@roadrunner.com

  24. ~60 ounces of water and 1 tall nonfat Mocha (which although it offsets the water is totally required)!!!

  25. Hardly any. Hopefully if I win this I’ll have a reason to drink more. 🙂 Great contest, keep up the amazing work!

  26. Monique Rizzo says

    I drink about 8 glasses of water per day!! Thanks for the chance.
    mogrill@comcast.net

  27. I drink a lot of tea but I would say 2 litres, thanks.

  28. I drink at least sixty ounces daily – then I pee a lot.

  29. Some days I get in more but I always try to get 64oz in at least.

  30. Carol Lawrence says

    I have kidney disease,so I drink as much as I can to keep them working. I drink water and un-sweetened iced tea throughout the day. jelly15301@gmail.com

  31. I drink one bottle of water each day – I know I need to drink a lot more, so I will, when I get this new water bottle

  32. At least 32 oz .

  33. I try to drink alot of water, but alas I drink more tea.

  34. Roughly 17 oz a day, sometimes more, sometimes less

  35. I drink about 4 8oz. glasses of water each day. Thanks!

  36. I average drinking about 48 oz per day.

  37. I drink WAY less than I should – maybe this would be a motivation!

  38. My goal has been two bottles of water for each can of soda. I have been averaging four waters and two sodas a day besides the milk at dinner and oj at breakfast.

  39. Janna Johnson says

  40. I live in the desert so water is my beverage of choice. I drink a minimum of 2 quarts daily, but often much more.

    Thank you. 🙂

  41. Shannon Finer says

    Sadly, the only water I drink is what is in my coffee in the mornings.

  42. I drink at least 10 – 8oz. glasses of water a day.

  43. I drink four glasses of water everyday.

    janetfaye (at) gmail (dot) com

  44. I only drink one or two glasses of straight water a day—but add to that the H20 content of of three or four cups of coffee and one or two big glasses of iced tea and I’m well hydrated anyway.

  45. I drink at least 8 or 9 12 oz glasses of water a day. I talk all day in my job and I am always so thirsty. There is a side effect to that however, so having a washroom nearby is handy.

  46. If you include my morning coffee, then one cup!

  47. I drink eight 8 oz’s of water a day… that’s 64 oz’s a day, right?

  48. kristi blackstone says

    I drink around 3 bottles of water a day

  49. I try to drink 50-60 ounces of water a day, plus any other beverage. I did a great job achieving that goal when I was pregnant, because I always carried a water bottle with me, but I don’t now. I end up drinking most of the water in the evenings between dinner and going to bed.

  50. Lauralee Hensley says

    The glass I am drinking from right now is 24 ounces and I even have larger ones I drink from. I primarily drink water or herbal decaf tea. I drink at least one gallon of water a day, and sometimes even more. I kid you not. No matter where I go I always take water with me. I even drink water at church if I feel I need it.

  51. very cool

  52. I drink between 2-4 bottles, depending on how hard I’m working!

  53. I usually don’t drink very much water at all and really should start. I mostly end up drinking pepsi and coffee which is not a good thing.

  54. I drink about 32 ozs. That’s how much my bottle holds. If I have to go to a meeting I will refill the bottle. I seem to drink more when I am bored.

  55. Theresa DeRosa says

    I drink 48 oz of water daily.

  56. David Richardson says

    I hate to admit it, but I only drink about 12 oz. of water a day. Does tea count?? I drink about 64 oz. a day!

  57. Sarah Hirsch says

    If we go out to eat, I down the water like crazy – the waiters can never keep up with me. But I’d home, probably about 4-5 large glasses a day.

  58. About 16-20 oz of water.

  59. Angela Winesburg says

    I drink about 5 glasses a day! Thanks for the chance!

  60. I drink about ten ounces…. but I know I really should drink more.

  61. I can guess only. Not enough that’s for sure. But maybe 2 glasses a day.

  62. I drink two glasses a day.

  63. Shane Murray says

    I usually drink at least one fill of my 24 oz bottle a day.

  64. I drink a lot of water because I’m pregnant – yesterday I had about 60oz!

  65. I try to drink 64 oz. a day from a huge cup I lug around each day.

  66. Awesome giveaway, thanks guys!…. =D

  67. I don’t drink as much as I should.
    One, maybe two a day!

  68. I’m great about it during the week at work – easily 2 liters.
    But weekends while running about?
    Not so good! Hardly any.

  69. I go through about 3-4 bottles of water each day, depending on the day, summer days are sooo much hotter, :o)

  70. I drink a gallon of liquid a day.

  71. Tammy Kennedy says

    I drink at least 3-4 32 oz cups of water a day
    I flavor it with fruit juice for 1 of those cups the others are just plain ice water.

  72. I drink about 2.5 glasses of water per day.

  73. I drink at least 32 ounces of water a day. I have a 16-oz bottle that I fill in the morning and refill at least once. I know I should drink more.

  74. Definitely not enough! Besides the glass I drink when I wake up, the only water I take in during the day are the ice cubes that are dropped in my pop! I’d be great to bring some filtered water in a bottle from home to work – cheaper too!

  75. I drink about 6 glasses a day. I’m always thirsty.

  76. I drink about 40-40 oz. a day. I’m working on drinking more!

  77. I drink tons of water- I literally keep a bottle with me at all times at home and out.

    Bad to do is ignore other drinks, though, I poisoned myself from too much water (I was ill and didn’t get anything else- I guess it messed with electrolytes etc). Now, I am careful but still drink at least 8 glasses a day.

  78. I don’t drink that much…most of it is in my coffe, lol! Maybe 20oz?

  79. It is a running joke in my house that the only water my body gets is filtered through coffee and tea. I really only drink water when I am working in the house sweating a lot and that is usually on the weekends. So maybe 16-20 oz.?

    That sounds terrible doesn’t it LOL?

  80. I probably drink about 4-5 glasses a day but drink tea, milk and juice. I find if I stretch my stomach with too much water I am even hungrier.

  81. I don’t drink nearly enough, maybe 2 full glasses. Yikes! That’s bad. Thank you for the giveaway!

  82. I honestly only dink about 12 ounces a day.I know I need to start drinking more.Thanks!

  83. Well, I drink one cup of coffee and some water when I brush my teeth and some maybe 2-3 glasses besides. Not enough, I am sure!

  84. Miranda Allen says

    I love these bottles

  85. it depends upon how you define ‘water’. Straight up not too much but if you include Crystal Light and tea/Coffee (They are essentially flavored water) then I drink about 3-4 cups per day.

  86. I don’t tend to drink but one or two full glasses, but I keep a juice glass on my kitchen island, and I’ll have a few of those during the day when I take pills or am just thirsty. But it would be nice to keep a stainless steel bottle with me at the computer. Maybe I’d drink more!! Thanks so much.

  87. I probably about 4-5 large glasses a day.if not more.

  88. OUT OF THE 8 GLASSES A DAY I PROMISED MYSELF, I USUALLY ONLY MANAGE TWO.

  89. I drink out of a pint sized cup and probably drink 3 a day.

  90. I drink 45-60 oz. a day depending on activity…I definitley always have a water bottle with me (and snacks, too). I’ve switched my kids over to all stainless steel, but hadn’t switched all my bottles. This is in part because I like a straw cup (to reduce spills vs. a bottle with a lid that has to be removed), and this bottle looks like it will fit the bill. Thanks for the great info!

  91. I have a 20oz water bottle at my desk that I try to fill up at least 3 times per day. I like my water ice cold though and in the regular water bottle it doesn’t stay very cold.

  92. I drink 3 glasses of water a day, if not more!

  93. I drink at least a liter of water, sometimes more.

  94. Joanne Schultz says

    When I am at home I don’t think about it. I spend a lot of time at Barnes & Noble cafe using their free wi-fi, so I have a large iced tea, and then 3-4 of that sized cup full of water.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  95. susan smoaks says

    i drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, that’s the one thing i do do right!

  96. i drink about 4 eight ounce glasses

  97. I am defintaely guilty of not drinking enough water. I drink about 3 or 4 – 8 oz. glasses of water a day.

  98. It probably averages out to be a liter of water per day, in addition to other liquids such as coffee, tea, etc.

  99. Veronica Garrett says

    I drink about 3 12oz bottles each day.

  100. I drink at least 60 oz. a day but I have a thyroid condition.

  101. Not as much as I should about 5 cups a day 🙂

  102. I have water with me where ever I go. I probably drink around 64 ounces a day. Hydrate! Hydrate! Hydrate! I like the looks of th Nathan bottles. Thanks for the contest.

  103. I drink at least 64 ounces (doctored with some Propel), plus a 20 ounce latte every day plus usually some other beverage with dinner.

  104. I drink about a liter. If I’m working out, I drink another liter.

  105. I drink around 150 oz of water a day. I’ve been doing this since I was a teen. It’s similar to exercise for me, I just feel so much better when I’m drinking this much! 🙂

  106. i drink about 20oz a day but i collect breast cancer stuff since my grandma and great grandma both died from this

  107. around a gallon.
    im suppose 2 drink 2 gallons:(
    I have cystinuria and have 2 drinks lots!

  108. Probably about 12 cups.. I drink when i’m thirsty. I’m also nursing twins so that explains the large amount 🙂

  109. I’m not sure how much water I drink at home. It seems like every time I pass the faucet I’m drinking a few ounces. But at work I drink about 25 to 30 ounces (or more) every 8 hours.

  110. I drink 3 or 4 cups of water a day.
