Friday's water challenge...

clewliss

First of all, let me say that I don't like water AT ALL!! So, for myself and anyone who feels the same way, I am making a challenge just for today to get in 40oz! DON'T LAUGH:laugh: ...I said I don't like water!! Maybe next Friday I will be up to 41oz haha- This is a big deal for me, but if you are one who can drink 64oz/day then this challenge is going to be very lame! Who's with me? Here goes my first 8oz:drinker:

I will give it a try as well. I have had about 4 oz already today. I drank that to get my vitamin down this morning. Only 90% more to go. :drinker:

We should do this everyday. I'm done with 16 now. And so far no Diet Pepsi, but it's calling to me.

I've been slacking on my water lately. I've turned to Green Tea...And I don't feel like trying to get my water in either! I guess that's why this is a "challenge"...Bah. :grumble:

I'm in.... shhh... Though I'm a water lover...since it's gotten colder here I've found my water intake isn't coming as naturally as it does in the warmer monthes.

So I'm having to pay much more attention....... so this challenge works perfect for me!:drinker:
Long as ya don't beat me up cause I'm a water I'm in lover!!:huh: :laugh:

Good Luck all!:drinker: :drinker:

Fitness_Chick

We should do this everyday.

Awesome IDEA...totally agree!! Let's just keep it going and bump it when it gets hidden...:drinker:

Hopefully it'll stay active and never need a bump

YAY...got mine in for 1/2 the day....well the goal of 40 oz+. I mean....and more... I did 2 water classes early morning :yawn: yea...it was early!:yawn: So drank a ton before, during and after that.

Great kick butt classes....and I was so fatiqued when through...I started downing the water so even though I just saw this thread....it's gonna get me through the rest of the day to get some extra in.

:flowerforyou: to all!

How's everyone else doing??:bigsmile:

Anna_Banana

I'm at 36. But I have a 3/4 full bottle I'm working on.

Fitness_Chick

WOW! I am SO proud of you guys.....this rocks.... normally water is not something I struggle but there are other things, sometimes veggies etc...just forget about them ...I mean getting them all in for the day... I eat them just not enough everyday I suppose.

So for you all that struggle with not enjoying water.... YOU DONE GOOD!!!!!!:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

Fun to be in the challenge with you all..

I can see this turn into more threads.... veggies daily......fruit.....whatever else... we'll have 50 other threads sprout from Clewliss's idea on this ONE!

I drink at least a gallon of water a day, and I wanted to share how I do it because I know water is so important to weight loss. Water helps to metabolize body fat, so think of drinking water as flushing out the fat, because it does!

I always have my 25 ounce stainless steel water bottle with me and full of water. Every time I go to the bathroom, when I get finished, I drink THE WHOLE BOTTLE and refill it. Then in an hour and a half or so, I have to eliminate that water, so I go to the bathroom, and I drink another WHOLE BOTTLE. I never let myself go back to work or back to whatever I was doing until I down another whole bottle. I go to the bathroom ALL the time, but I also have all of my water (64 ounces) in by about noon and spend the rest of the day drinking extra. Try it...it sounds silly, but it works. I never go to the bathroom without taking my water bottle with me and I always get my water in.
