So, I have not been drinking water lately. I used to be totally addicted to water... I don't know what happened and I can't seem to get the amount of water in that I need anymore. I get bored with it. I need some inspirational thoughts while I'm drinking it. Any Ideas!?! (Sounds goofy, I know, but I need to be thinking something GOOD in order to get it down.) It's just so strange because I used to drink water EVERYwhere I went. I never left the house without my water bottle.

    Drink for your health!
    1 small sip for now, 1 bottle to clearer skin!
    Dehydration sucks.

    I'm a water addict! Never go anywhere without a bottle near at hand. 13-18 glasses a day! LOL!

    Tea, Coffee, Juice, Soda, Milk, Fruit, Veg.

    You dont HAVE to touch neat water. I never do. Just get hydrated through other things.

    Research measuring water loss has shown that we should drink about 1.2 litres of fluid every day to stop us getting dehydrated. This works out to be about six 200ml or eight 150ml glasses, cups or mugs.

    The total amount of water we lose each day and need to replace is in fact greater than this – about 2.5 litres – but we get 1 litre of the fluid we need from food and the body recovers 0.3 litres from chemical reactions in our cells. The rest needs to be taken from drinks. All non-alcoholic drinks count, but water, milk and fruit juices are the healthiest.
