Just heads up for anyone wanting too try this themselves, there is such a thing as over drinking so DO NOT drink a large quantity in a short amount of time, slowly drink it all up through out the day, do not try to gulp down excessive amounts of water in one go.
On top of your sodium levels dropping, which was mentioned in the video, water flows to your brain causing it to swell up which can result in permanent brain damage or death. This happens because the brain contains more sodium than other organs, and when the body is receiving too much water it will usually just deposit in your brain because water is attracted to sodium. (btw I’m not an expert, but I got this information from a doctor, and you can do more research on your own if you’d like to learn more)
@@gleichita Ya I learnt about that somewhere before as well! That’s why it’s not healthy too drink too much in one go. One important thing to remember is that basically any food, or drink can become unhealthy if you ingest too much of it.
@@gleichita true, but for average size and weight, that would only happen if you were to drink 5,5 to 6 liters of water in one go, aka 1,5 gallons of water in one sitting.
Tip for anyone who does this: Eat salty food if your trying to drink more water. Even just a few potato chips, or if you wanna stay healthy, olives are also good. What happens when you do this is that the salt helps to keep the water in your body instead of it just going straight through super fast. So the bathroom issue is fixable!! Ps. This is a true fact, and is scientifically proven.
Ok but the thing is this does not actually make a difference with the peeing unless you're eating more salt daily than you really should. A few potato chips or olives is nowhere near enough to do what you're describing.
I was reading comments got to "trying to make it to the bathroom" and began to scroll up, it processed in my mind and I scrolled back down laughing like 'hold on, what!?" Best comment.
I am enjoying this video and have nothing to say, but I thought I’d write a comment to help engagement and do my little bit to help with the famous algorithm.
As a kid I never understood why my mother and aunts all drank practically nothing but water. Soda and coffee were hard to kick but it's been about 10 years of nothing but water every day and I've never looked back. Caffeine has nothing on the way water can make you feel.
"I will replenish 22 years of dehydration RIGHT NOW honey. Drown me" 😂😂😂 I've to replenish 23 years of dehydration.. but a gallon everyday!? I don't even drink a cup of water! Pray for me 😅
Started drinking a gallon a day on Monday, here it is, Friday and I can feel the difference. I feel happier and more alert. I even went for a brisk walk today, the first time in a long time. I know I have been eating less as well, since I haven't really been all that hungry.
I mean yeah, having to pee every two seconds was annoying at first, but over time as I got used to it I noticed it wasn't as frequent as before. I totally notice the difference now whenever I slack which is not fun. It's amazing how many people really don't drink water and opt for other things instead, I worry for them and what might happen to them in the long run if they don't change those habits.
lol the "water wobbling around in my stomach" reminded me of ramadan when i fill myself up with way too much water before fasting and have to lie down at a 45 degree angle so that it doesn't come gushing out of me. you'd think i'd learn my lesson but i still do that every year. also i realized watching this that my water intake has dropped in the last few months and i should probably buy a nice bottle or a fancy huge cup with a straw as that helps me immensely with drinking water.
same, literally every time i get up for breakfast i drink far too much to last me the day but it just ends up making me feel sick and i still get constantly thirsty
@@maxw7118 no. No water or any kind of food (among other restrictions) from sunrise till sunset. It's not that bad, of course many people take precautions like not doing excessive work in the extreme heat if they can avoid it. And what people eat in preparation (the food before fasting) also change according to weather and across cultures so it doesn't make you too thirsty (or hungry) through out the day. And it must also depend on how long is the fast in the area where we live. Sorry for the long reply, it's just that being thirsty doesn't matter that much after some hours. If it is life-threatening we just break the fast i guess.
Oh- Right yeah I get it. When someone is severely dehydrated, their bladder shrinks and their bodies think they're hungry. So your body constantly wants food despite being thirsty.

My grandmother's a nurse, and when I went on my own water-drinking binge (didn't go for a gallon a day, but I did manage to get through most of a half gallon most days), and I experienced nearly all of what you did, including the urination. Except for the bit about waking up to pee. Didn't get that. Because my grandmother had suggested not drinking water after two hours before bed. So say you normally go to bed at 9pm. Don't drink after 7pm. That gives your body time to digest and remove the excess water so you can sleep uninterrupted. And now, being reminded of how great I felt and seeing you do it yourself, I'm thinking about doing it again now that I'm starting a new job. The first few weeks are normally spent at computers anyway so this is a good time to start something and be relatively adjusted by the time I get onto the floor.

Me drinking 2.5Litres a day ☺️ Me before watching this video ‘oh i don’t t know how much water that is in litres’ my reaction to finding how much a gallon is 👁👄👁
Honestky isn't a gallon a bit too much? 3l should be way too much- I can't imagine her organs after that.... drinking water is healthy, but too much water can also do a harm
@@Ellie-np9oi yeah depends on what your body is used to, there have been stories of marathon runners consuming way too much water because they’re just handed cups and so they’re mindlessly drinking and they end up collapsing due to the excess water in their cells, ellbat did put a disclaimer that she’d done it before so a gallon must not bother her 🤷♀️ it would be interesting to see blood work results before and after though! 🤣 im getting a bit too sciencey now but yeah a gallon would be wayyyy too much for me i think I’ll stick to 2.5L 😂
Im no medical professional (and technically they say 8 glasses of water a day, which I believe to be incorrect) but I go by the "an ounce of water for every pound you weigh" rule. So a 150 pound person should be drinking around 150 ounces which is just over a gallon. As each individual has their uniqueness, so is their circumstance. If its hot and you're sweaty... Drink more. If you're more active one day... Drink more. Etc.
Always a fun and informative video , you as usual make your videos lite hearted , and fun with your likeable sense of humor and personality . Well done kido , much love and I as usual hit the like button in hopes to get your channel shared more
i've struggled with drinking water *ALL MY LIFE* to this day i am actually PROUD of myself when i manage to drink 1 litre a day. mostly it's like two glasses,, until i get so dehydrated that the migraines are killing me and i eventually go 'oh right i'm probably dehydrated' hhh
Girrrrrl you got this!!! I often drank around 1 liter as well, but 2019 i chose my new years resolution to be at least 1.5 liters of water a day. In these 2 years, i didn't do it like 5 times MAX. And i usually drink around 2 liters 💪🏼 Just do it 🤠 sounds stupid but works
Loved the vid. Several of the points resonated with my and my water journey. Omg the angry spots! Day 1 half way through the day, glowing skin but several angry spots when just the day before I had been spot free but looking grey, soooo much wee, more energy and less food eaten
this triggered a memory. in primary school we sang a song called what goes in must comeout, we must learn to protect out bodies. what we eat, what we drink, shapes the way that we grow. everybody needs healthy things to feed us everyday everybody needs nutrients to help us work and play. thankyou thankyou. yes i remember it all and im now 18...
My sister and I have a condition called POTS, that mostly has to do with blood pooling, low blood pressure, and low blood volume. So we dump salt on everything we eat and we each drink over a gallon a day. It’s interesting seeing someone else drink that much, and how the affects are different. To me it sounds like you were dehydrated and this was solving that issue. For me drinking so much water is the bare minimum of what I need to properly function instead of laying in bed all day
@@amim4701 That sounds like something fun I could try actually. I had a mohawk (not spiked) for a few years and recently decided to grow it out. My hair is very thick and curly, so the sides of my head look crazy as it's growing out. So I decided to live in a beanie this winter to disguise my ridiculous grow out transition! This would be the perfect opportunity to dye my streak!
Love your accent. Love that you are so chill with yourself and willing to try all these neat things for your UA-cam fans. Also you look great. Keep up the great videos and keep living your best life. :)
@@elisa1213 the UK gallon is equal to 4.55 liters while the US gallon is equal to 3.78 liters. As a fellow metric system girl i'm so confused. Like, the imperial sistem is already complicated and you're going to change the units depending on the country? Ffs
That was defintely a motivation to drink more water. Thanks! Btw I discovered you channel yesterday and I must admit you make very good videos! I am in love with your accent!! :)
I tried a gallon a day awhile back, but I didn't last very long because ultimately I found getting up 2-3 times a night to pee was too disruptive to my sleep. good for you though!!
I tried doing this at the beginning of the year and I can say that I did lose quite a bit of weight from doing this and I had a lot more energy than usual. I should probably start doing this again
I've done this a few times before, and I love it so much! I feel so much better, have significantly more energy, and I always end up losing some weight. It sucks when I have to go on a trip or something though and can't take my giant water bottle, then I have to somehow train my body again so I'm not peeing constantly.
So I did this exact same challenge for 30 days! And I was blown away by how much better I felt by the end of the first 30 days! The first 3 days were the hardest for me! I literally thought I was going to bloody die😂 but by the end of the month, I decided I wanted to keep doing it, and that was about 6 months ago. When I seen what this new video was about, I got genuinely excited! Oh!! And I think you're channels are great🤗 so keep up all the good work, you're videos do brighten my day!!
@@KillerInnocentx I did!! I've lost about 30lbs over the last 6months! But I also don't eat dairy or gluten, and I work out 3 days a week! I cant say for sure how much the water intake contributed to that, but I did stop having severe headaches, and my energy levels improved a great deal!!
@@marianna9596 I calculate the amount of water I drink by counting the amount of small bottles i drink (0.5 litre). When it's empty I refill them whit tap water
@@marianna9596 well fortunately I am no longer in school. But my recommendation would be to plan out the amount of water you can drink before school and after! Even if you can't do a full gallon every single day, making small changes, such as choosing water over a pop, helps! And then just be conscious of how much you drink after school is over! Once you get into a habit that works for you, it becomes second nature! Or at least it did for me!
Omgoodness I can't believe how young you are. I am 57 and you crack me up! LOL! You remind me of my own friends... quirky, funny beautiful and brilliant. LOL!

@@Ellie-np9oi yeah depends on what your body is used to, there have been stories of marathon runners consuming way too much water because they’re just handed cups and so they’re mindlessly drinking and they end up collapsing due to the excess water in their cells, ellbat did put a disclaimer that she’d done it before so a gallon must not bother her 🤷♀️ it would be interesting to see blood work results before and after though! 🤣 im getting a bit too sciencey now but yeah a gallon would be wayyyy too much for me i think I’ll stick to 2.5L 😂
@@Ellie-np9oi for your water intake to be dangerous, you'd have to consume multiple gallons per day. A gallon a day is great for you!
Im no medical professional (and technically they say 8 glasses of water a day, which I believe to be incorrect) but I go by the "an ounce of water for every pound you weigh" rule. So a 150 pound person should be drinking around 150 ounces which is just over a gallon. As each individual has their uniqueness, so is their circumstance. If its hot and you're sweaty... Drink more. If you're more active one day... Drink more. Etc.
I love it how she always put so much effort into her videos by doing so much research to really teach us about what she’s talking about. :)
It wasn't the begging that got my like, it was the humor. You're hella funny, and I fucking love it. 🤣
Always a fun and informative video , you as usual make your videos lite hearted , and fun with your likeable sense of humor and personality . Well done kido , much love and I as usual hit the like button in hopes to get your channel shared more

friendly reminder to take a sip of water if you’re reading this 💦

Your hair is so wavey i kinda wanna know what your hair would look like if you would do the ‘curly girl’ routine
I literally just love you... I feel so ill rn and you’re making me feel better
i've struggled with drinking water *ALL MY LIFE* to this day i am actually PROUD of myself when i manage to drink 1 litre a day. mostly it's like two glasses,, until i get so dehydrated that the migraines are killing me and i eventually go 'oh right i'm probably dehydrated' hhh
Same! I was told by a doctor to always take a water bottle with me when I was 6 years old! Still down drink enough 12 years later
Why tho
Like halfway through the video I went and chugged some water. We gotta love influencers that influence 😂
You’re my idol, I can’t even drink a liter a day
Girrrrrl you got this!!! I often drank around 1 liter as well, but 2019 i chose my new years resolution to be at least 1.5 liters of water a day. In these 2 years, i didn't do it like 5 times MAX. And i usually drink around 2 liters 💪🏼
Just do it 🤠 sounds stupid but works
Weak.
Same and as I have issues with my lungs this is really bad for my health but I feel like I have to force myself but it’s exhausting :(
The intro is 8 minutes long and I didn't realize. You are a special human LMFAO-
I love the way you say “wo-täh”
i’m 16 n i have LOTS of grey hair, i consider myself pretty healthy so it doesn’t bother me much
yes honey ROCK it
My mum went grey at 16, she has been grey my whole life! Never dyed it
I started going grey at 22, i’m 30 now.
Embrace it!
Grey hair = wisdom!
I understand where you are coming from with the water and food thing. Sometimes when I'm throaty I go looking for food instead of water
i love how shes confident enough not to care about her weight ❤
To be honest your content isn't the kind of thing I'd normally watch but you're blunt and I like that. You've earned yourself another subscriber.
I've just come across this channel. I love that your information is always scientifically supported whilst safe and humourus!
I didn't get an ad so it just looks as tho she stopped talking for a second lmao
Same , @Laura V , btw I'm a girl on a family member's account
I've never been this early
Same
one time i did this and i could here the water wobbling around in my stomach 😭
Loved the vid. Several of the points resonated with my and my water journey. Omg the angry spots! Day 1 half way through the day, glowing skin but several angry spots when just the day before I had been spot free but looking grey, soooo much wee, more energy and less food eaten
this triggered a memory.
in primary school we sang a song called what goes in must comeout,
we must learn to protect out bodies.
what we eat, what we drink,
shapes the way that we grow.
everybody needs healthy things to feed us everyday
everybody needs nutrients to help us work and play.
thankyou thankyou. yes i remember it all and im now 18...

Anime is the only acceptable procrastination for school work
Me, a little uncultured French girl: I wonder how many litres a gallon is
Ellbat, an amazingly smart woman : 4 LITERS
Me : ........ well damn
My sister and I have a condition called POTS, that mostly has to do with blood pooling, low blood pressure, and low blood volume. So we dump salt on everything we eat and we each drink over a gallon a day. It’s interesting seeing someone else drink that much, and how the affects are different. To me it sounds like you were dehydrated and this was solving that issue. For me drinking so much water is the bare minimum of what I need to properly function instead of laying in bed all day
Her drinking water had more character development then most netflix series :0
I too started trying to drink a lot more water recently and noticed that my body was like "GIVE ME ALL THE WATER NOWWWWW"
El: "Have a beautiful day and I-"
Advert: "THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND!"
ahahaha 😂❤
I started to get gray hairs when I was 20, I'm 37 now and have a full on white streak amongst brunette and silver locks!
I dye my skunk stripe with different temporary color based on mood, season, holiday, etc. With Covid I live in a scrub cap at work.
@@amim4701 That sounds like something fun I could try actually. I had a mohawk (not spiked) for a few years and recently decided to grow it out. My hair is very thick and curly, so the sides of my head look crazy as it's growing out. So I decided to live in a beanie this winter to disguise my ridiculous grow out transition! This would be the perfect opportunity to dye my streak!
You’ve convinced me to try it! Also love your personality so much! I noticed your skin is GLOWING after you drank a lot more water !
Love your accent. Love that you are so chill with yourself and willing to try all these neat things for your UA-cam fans. Also you look great. Keep up the great videos and keep living your best life. :)
To all my metric system fellas out there : a gallon is about 4.55 liters..... Like .... What?
no it's around 3,78
@@elisa1213 the UK gallon is equal to 4.55 liters while the US gallon is equal to 3.78 liters.
As a fellow metric system girl i'm so confused. Like, the imperial sistem is already complicated and you're going to change the units depending on the country? Ffs
@@sibylle1927 oh okay didnt know she was from the UK!! i'm so confused omfg that makes no sense just stick to one unit 😔 thanks though !!!
When you’re so *elite* that the ad didn’t show up 😏😏
Take care that you have good levels in your electrolytes. Water flushes them out. Just a reminder to be mindful of them :)
That was defintely a motivation to drink more water. Thanks!
Btw I discovered you channel yesterday and I must admit you make very good videos! I am in love with your accent!! :)
"Wearing a hoodie indoors is not proper etiquette"
*me while wearing an oversised gengar hoodie and thigh highs as pj's* 👁👄👁
Thigh highs as pj pants is my entire existence
I tried a gallon a day awhile back, but I didn't last very long because ultimately I found getting up 2-3 times a night to pee was too disruptive to my sleep. good for you though!!
"Gallon" how much is that in litres lmao
same HAHA
She put it in the discription. Its a bit iver 4 litres
Alllmost 4 litres!
A gallon is a 4l milk jug if that helps you visualize
@@amybyrne5208 I dont think I've ever seen 4 litres of water in one bottle :/
I tried doing this at the beginning of the year and I can say that I did lose quite a bit of weight from doing this and I had a lot more energy than usual. I should probably start doing this again
I've done this a few times before, and I love it so much! I feel so much better, have significantly more energy, and I always end up losing some weight. It sucks when I have to go on a trip or something though and can't take my giant water bottle, then I have to somehow train my body again so I'm not peeing constantly.
Thank you for your informative Video Ellbat.
So I did this exact same challenge for 30 days! And I was blown away by how much better I felt by the end of the first 30 days! The first 3 days were the hardest for me! I literally thought I was going to bloody die😂 but by the end of the month, I decided I wanted to keep doing it, and that was about 6 months ago. When I seen what this new video was about, I got genuinely excited! Oh!! And I think you're channels are great🤗 so keep up all the good work, you're videos do brighten my day!!
Did you lose weight? Some people say you do but i dont think so.. e-e
@@KillerInnocentx I did!! I've lost about 30lbs over the last 6months! But I also don't eat dairy or gluten, and I work out 3 days a week! I cant say for sure how much the water intake contributed to that, but I did stop having severe headaches, and my energy levels improved a great deal!!
How did you keep up with everyday life? I would like to try but I can't take a bottle the size of a gallon to school
@@marianna9596 I calculate the amount of water I drink by counting the amount of small bottles i drink (0.5 litre). When it's empty I refill them whit tap water
@@marianna9596 well fortunately I am no longer in school. But my recommendation would be to plan out the amount of water you can drink before school and after! Even if you can't do a full gallon every single day, making small changes, such as choosing water over a pop, helps! And then just be conscious of how much you drink after school is over! Once you get into a habit that works for you, it becomes second nature! Or at least it did for me!
