I am looking for a fun, and hopefully free, Water tracking app for my iphone. I downloaded a few but their graphics were boring and/or I couldn't adjust the amount of oz I would report, etc.
Other than the plant water tracker app, do you have one that really actually motivates you to drink more water?
Sincerely,
Gabrielle

http://news.health.com/2015/09/16/the-amount-of-water-you-actually-need-per-day/?xid=timeThe truth: How much water you should drink each day really, truly depends on the person, Robert A. Huggins, PhD, of the University of Connecticut explained to Health. “Fluid needs are dynamic and need to be individualized from person to person. Factors such as sex, environmental conditions, level of heat acclimatization, exercise or work intensity, age, and even diet need to be considered.”
What this means is that simply listening to your thirst is the best way to gauge when to drink. Another way to monitor hydration is to look at your pee before you flush. You want it to look like lemonade; if it’s darker than that, you should down a glass.0 -

I went through a phase where I read everything I could about drinking water and fasting and dieting. And I often read that if you wait until you feel thirsty to drink water, you are already getting or are dehydrated. Personally, I've lost weight before when I drank a lot of water and I think it's supposed to be good for the skin and I feel like it's better for normal bodily functions. I do admit that my digestion feels a lot better when I drink at least 64 oz of water. But, I think it's up to each person to do what they feel is best.0
