I didn't do too well today either. Had about 4 coke zeros which are meant to be there as a treat when the water is up to date :blushing:

Read this, you may not need to drink all that after all.0 -
Hi hazelclark:Thanks for your input. I am aware that there are differing opionions on the water issue and that's okay. There are lots of other issues on MFP that folk get quite passionate about. I choose to go with what works for me which is to follow my trainer's advice, and the plan has been approved by my endocrinoligist. I have lost nearly 60kg and my diabetes is well controlled for the first time in many years. I feel better, am less hungry and don't struggle with as many headaches when I drink sufficient water. But unless I keep track I tend to get lazy. And this thread is here to help those of us who want to try and keep hydrated with water.0

I am finally catching up.0 -
Hazelclark - thanks for the article.
I am still working out the best thing for me and water. I have found my self thinking about two things that were mentioned in the article
'If you don't drink enough, your body will save water by concentrating your urine, which will look darker, and your brain will tell you that you need more water by making you feel thirsty.'
I think listening to my body may be the best thing for drinking enough water. On days that I do not do any intense exercise, I am not overly thirsty and drink 3 to 6 cups of water. On days that I bike lots, I have no trouble going over 8 cups.0
