I was reading a random book yesterday and stumbled upon this little OCD gem:

for every one ounce of ice cold water you consume, you burn one calorie

Being the curious mathematical dork, I decided to do a few calculations. What if, I wondered, I drank 32 ounces of cold water per day?

32 ounces x 365 days = 32 calories burned x 365 = 11,680 calories burned per year, or rounding about 3 pounds per year.

I have about 30 years left to live, so by drinking this amount of cold water per day I will lose over 90 pounds by the time I pass on.

then I stop and realize all the cold drinks I've consumed over the year and wonder just how fat i would be if beer was served warm. Scary!
