Water Challenge!

We all know our bodies are mostly water. So why don't we drink enough to supply our bodies with what it needs? Water helps your skin look fresh and young, helps you stay awake mid-day, flushes out toxins, reduces cravings, and helps you lose weight. Your body only retains water when you are dehydrated.

If you drink water your body won't think it's in need and will let the "retention" go. Yes, you have to run to the bathroom a lot, but think of it this way. If you work in an office job, you have an excuse to get up every 30 min.

I just purchased a great water bottle. Ever watch a little show called Biggest Loser? Of course you have. They all carry the awesome nalgene water bottle which is bpa free and a great solid, long lasting, plastic. As much as I love the green bottle they use on the show, I could not resist, I had to get the pink. It's 32 oz. featuring the narrow mouth. It's also really comfortable to drink from. And with the measurements on the side, I can keep track of my water intake.

So here is my challenge to you, and yet again, to myself. I want you to try and drink either 1 ounce of water per pound of body weight or one gallon. Your choice. One gallon equals four of the naglene bottles. This is my goal. I completed three today by 9:30 PM. Wow, have to be a bit better tomorrow.

I promise within only a few days of this you, will see extra weight fall off.

Good luck and let me know how it's going. Tell me your goal (1 ounce water per pound or 1 gallon). I love to read your comments.

Be Blessed.
