in Challenges
The "Drink You Water" challenge is a new one I'm starting, as I have a hard time drinking water or consuming many liquids and need some motivation. The challenge is to log how many glasses or ounces of water or 0-calorie or low-cal drink in a day and to keep a running tally. Here's to happy hydration!! :smiley:

    Hello all! Welcome!! Sorry, it's been a busy weekend for me, getting a lot of things done. I've been trying to get the water in. As you will see, yesterday (7/4) was pretty pathetic, but I plan to do much better today! I swear I'm a camel...lol!!

    July 1 -- 56 oz (7 glasses)
    July 2 -- 42 oz (6 glasses)
    July 3 -- 32 oz (4 glasses)

    I had this problem a while back, but I started drinking way more water than usual. Now, my daily goal is 2l, but I only manage to drink 1.5l which is amazing comparing how much my other family members drink. I want to recommend to anyone who has this problem the app Water drink reminder. This app helped me a lot with drinking water and now I don't even use it that much, water drinking became a habbit of mine :) Hope I helped

    I want to join! !! I get in the habit of NOT drinking anything-- AT ALL and can go most of the day on one glass of water. When I do begin drinking I am like a horse....its all I want to drink..then its nothing...I have always been like this. I believe that this is a reason why it is difficult for me to lose weight. This will definitely be a challenge!

    Thanks for the tip! I have an app, too, called "Daily Water." You click on the glass when you've finished a glass of water, and it makes the sound of someone drinking a glass of water.

    Can I join late? I really need to get my hydration under control. Sometimes I get to the evening hours and realize I've only had a cup of coffee or two all day! This is a great challenge. I'm just going to set my goal now for five glasses and see what happens daily.

    It's never too late to join! Welcome to the challenge! Sorry I've been AWOL, but I've been out of town with slow wifi so didn't bother to update this challenge during that time (I use my laptop for these challenges).
