    Thanks for starting this, and for starting with an easy one (for me, who drinks buckets of water!)

    I usually only average 2-3 glasses a day so this will really be a challenge for me! Guess I need to schedule more bathroom breaks! LOL

    Impressive!! Any tips? Imagine you sit down and drink at intervals or something?
  • Just keep a large glass full all the time, and you will drink it! ;)

    another way to change up the water is to add cucumber... I love it!
  • By the way... Did I need an invite to join? I apologize for joining without asking?

    I like the idea of doing a challenge from now until the new year ;)

    I have a question. :happy: Do we have to post everyday when the challenge begins and will you summarize the information we'll post.Just curious whether we're just motivating ourselves or doing this as a group. :smile:

    There is going to be a spreadsheet made and I will put a link up for it in time for the start of the challenge so that we can all post how we are doing :)

    I break it down and drink 2 glasses at a time every 2-3 hrs. It makes it a lot easier to get it all down lol
  • Great challenge. Shouldn't be too difficult and will keep us upbeat for the beginning of the challenge.

    Looking forward to this, especially during the holidays.

    Thanks so much for starting this group! This challenge will be a good one for me - I tend to start out the week good and drink lots of water, by the end of the week I am slacking!

    Really excited for the challenges! I usually get enough water so I don't really track it anymore but this will help get me back in the habit to be sure I'm meeting that goal!

    This is my first MFP challenge. :)

    I think I'm going to need to work on the water thing! I'm fine in work, I have herbal teas and a big water bottle (25oz) but it is at the weekends that I tend to slip

    Will be using these challenges to keep my motivation up.

    Water is easy for me, especially with summer coming. I use the lemon trick often, but love the idea of other fruit. Yummy!!!

    I'm really excited about doing this challenge! I am also in a challenge at work so I hope this helps me stick to it also! Someone said to me this week that I just need to face the facts and know that I wont ever lose the 32 lbs I want to lose! So I hope that comment and this challenge will really inspire me to do so! Thanks!
