Re: Water Water Everywhere Challenge

toni-had to re-read your post again..I could make the 6 o'clock news! Its too funny. I needed a smile today and that did it! I drive by an old 711 everyday and it has been all i can do to not pull over and go potty every few mins. So, I do make sure that i don't drink my water an hour before my shift..and i start chugging it the last 10 min. of my shift cause i can make it home and go potty. lol. I will do better starting tomorrow, or monday. lol

Glad you laughed, Cyn!

Well, I'm hoping for success this week. Now that I am not sipping some wine, I am sipping some MORE water!! Now THAT is a good thing!

Re: Water Water Everywhere Challenge

I am vowing to do better. I need to get really motivated with this water issue. I want to see the scale move but for some reason i don't want it enough to recapture the dedication i had this spring and summer. I honestly thing its the winter blues. I am going to pick up some crystal light..I know its not "water" but it helps, I use half a tube in double the water it calls for and helps me get it down. I am going to have a better water week and the scale will move. No flax this week either..i binged on flackers all weekend and feel horrible.

Re: Water Water Everywhere Challenge

Still going strong..... Occasionally I will substitute some unsweet iced tea for my water, but I even get water at restaurants now. It's also nice to save the $ on the drink! (Think positive, think positive, think positive.... it's one of my personality goals this year!)

Re: Water Water Everywhere Challenge

I have to seriously take charge of this. I have not been drinking water for more than 3 weeks. I use a glass to take my meds in the morning, then have not had a single glass of water the rest of the day or night.

Re: Water Water Everywhere Challenge

Make sure the water you are drinking is clean. By this I mean not from a fountain machine or your tap. Make sure you are drinking either spring water, RO or distilled. There is a lot of debate over the healthiness of RO & distilled. The main thing is not to drink them while you are working out or fasting. I got a Refrigerator Water Filter so that my water and ice would be clean. I honestly think the impurities in unfiltered drinking water hindered my weight loss.

Welcome, Vesper! I truly enjoy water now that I have a Culligan refrigerator filter carafe.

You must have some source of information that led you to think this way.... do you have a link on line you could direct us to?
