Drink Enough Water?

Do you think you drink enough water? Drinking enough water is really important. First and foremost, it's healthy. Pop has adverse effects on your body.


If you look at the sugar contained in other drinks water should be the obvious choice.  It keeps you hydrated, it quenches your thirst, it can help you feel fuller, it lubricates the joints, and there are so many more reasons why getting water in is important.

You should try to drink half your weight in ounces of water daily. Can you do this? If I can do it daily you CAN too!!! At first you might want to find a method of tracking your water intake. There are aps out there, or you could just jot it down.

Tips for getting more water in:

3. Drink water instead of pop and juice
4. Want to make your water more interesting? There are lots of recipes out there!!!
