Remember to Drink… Your Water

A lot of people are trying to lose weight for their New Year’s Resolutions…

And when not trying to lose weight, the vast majority of people, especially women, are conscious of maintaining their weight, like myself.

**And for the people who eat and drink anything they want, all the time, and never gain weight, well, leave a comment and I’ll introduce you to each other, I think only a couple of you exist.**

With that said I was reminded the other day about how important it is to drink water…

I do not drink anything during the day except for tea and water; soda is empty calories. BUT, it is easy this time of year to continually sip nice warm tea or coffee, and then at the end of the day, realize that you are thirsty…

So- DRINK MORE WATER. If you are at home or in the car/SUV/minivan: have a glass or bottle of water on hand so you can sip it occasionally. Did you know that most Americans at any given time are dehydrated?

Drink some water. You’ll feel better.  You’ll lose weight too.

Go ahead- drink!

Okay, I’m getting up to get a glass of water now…

    2. Good tip. I realized the same thing like last week some time. And I do think it has a lot to do with being winter. I realized some time around 4:00 one day that I hadn’t had any water at all yet, and had only had coffee. Bad. Very bad.

    And it’s something that’s so easy that can make us feel SO much better, right?

    3. it really does make a difference. I keep a water bottle (BPA free, of course :) ) by my side all day. It also helps me cut back on snacking!

    4. I need to get a new bottle, I really like that green Nalgene bottle. Do I hear an REI trip in my future?

    I drink coffee in the morning then switch to water. When I get tired of the “taste” of water, I use those individual size things of Crystal Light — only 5 calories per serving and the flavor is just enough to keep me swilling.

Tell me what you're thinking...
