Hi Everyone! Time for a new challenge!

Because we did something physical last week, I wanted to make a challenge that was more diet-related.

So, this week's challenge is to drink 8 glasses of water every day!

And when I say water, I mean water - not tea, coffee, soda, juice, etc. You can drink those things, but don't count them towards your 8 glasses.

Happy drinking! :)

p.s.
Just because last week's challenge is over, it doesn't mean you should stop being active! Keep trying to get those 30minutes in!

    I failed miserably at this challenge yesterday. I don't think I had more than 2 glasses of water! But today is a new day. :)

    I am a water freak! I pretty much stop drinking anything else in the last month or so. So I got this one in the bag!!

    Well, I've been drinking TONS of water because of an extremely sore throat that just won't quit. So I haven't been keeping track (haven't felt like it), but I know I met this week's goal, easily!

    Please, if you're the prayin' type, think of me for a moment and send some thoughts of healing my way. 10 days with a severe sore throat (and one trip to the doctor already) is wearing me thin. This stuff just needs to go away.

    Oh, Kandbabies: I hope that you are feeling better soon! Have you tried some old fashion tea with a bit of lemon and honey? Maybe it's an old wives tale, but i drink that when I have a sore throat and it makes me feel better (and TEA is like WATER) :)

    Sending out some healing prayers to you. Hope you are back on track soon!

    Oh yes, done the hot tea with honey and lemon! In fact, I think I might be getting better, since there aren't as many white spots today as there were a few days ago, but the pain is just not subsiding yet. If this goes on much longer, I guess it will be back to the doctor. They did a strep swab last week, which was negative, but I've heard they don't always show a positive result, so he might want to do another one. We'll see. Thanks for your kind words!
