edited September 26 in Motivation and Support
I have been struggling to drink my 80oz of water each day. So, I decided to make it "fun" by creating a water challenge. Wednesdays were usually "Wine Wednesday" for me, so I thought "Water Wednesday" would be a great day to kick-off my one week challenge.

I would love if other people joined me because I could use the support and motivation.
Starting tomorrow (4/13), I will post my daily water consumption and I am hoping some of you do too.

Cheers!

    Great!!

    I think this will help me... makes me more aware of my water intake and holds me accountable if I have to type my daily total on here.

    But if its more than you drank yesterday, then its still a success :) Tomorrow is a new day, try for the 80oz.

    Im slacking on my reporting... sorry :( I drank 88 oz yesterday and today I am at 112 so far. Ive had a little more sodium than I normally like to have the last few days so I am trying hard to flush today. I am gearing up for a lot of birthday party gatherings this weekend so I will be flushing all weekend.
