Hi, all you Saturday people. The weekend is under way.
Live each moment completely. Fully enjoy the wonder and the beauty of each moment, and let the future take care of itself.
👍🏻 Have a great day👌🏻1 -
The topic for today is water. Do you purposely drink a certain amount of water or set a goal to do so, or do you just naturally drink per your thirst.3

Exercise – yes, bike ride, and cardio.
Tracking – yes
Calories – yes
I don't set a goal for water and I don't track my intake. I think there is a lot of misunderstanding about water intake. Fluid intake is important but all fluids count including the fluids in your food, coffee, tea etc.
I drink when I’m thirsty and plain water is my preferred drink during the day. I have a hot lemon first thing in the morning, one coffee after breakfast and another after lunch. I drink water with meals.

✅✅✅ a quiet day on the UAC I see. I agree with you Lesley but I know that some folks set significant goals for water and feel like it helps them to lose weight and keep their systems moving.2

There are lots of myths about drinking water. I follow medical advice, which includes all fluids. I drink herbal tea first thing, and decaf tea/coffee or water with/after meals. I drink water when I feel thirsty and have extra water if I eat out, or have something extra salty. My MD advises checking the colour of your pee. If it is pale straw coloured, then you are getting more than enough fluids.
@lesdarts Well done on the 3 yeses. I thoroughly agree with you on water intake.2 -

Exercise- Yes -no formal workout but had 31 minutes of activity according to my FitBit. Chores and playing with grandkids.
Tracking and Calories Yes.
I drink 32 oz of water in the morning and by the end of the day, I have had at least 80 ounces. After being in the hospital a couple of months ago with a severe UTI I monitor the color of my urine. I enjoy my coffee in the morning and drink herbal iced tea in the afternoon. I have been adding Crystal Lite drink mixes to my water4 -

I drink 2 glasses of water shortly after waking, an extra glass of water mid morning and after workouts, and after that generally it is to thirst. When I am drinking my resistant starch shake I have to push myself to consume more water--- it has so much fiber that more fluids are needed to avoid constipation. For a long time I have paid attention to the color of my pee as described above by Terri, but I still need to add more water to avoid problems when my fiber and resistance starch consumption is very high.

I drink a few glasses of water each day but find it boring. I prefer flavored sparkling water and more recently I've been making fruity teas to put over ice. Mostly because I moved to a place that doesn't pickup your recyclables (we have to take them to a center ... so backwards in my opinion) so I'm trying to cut down on the number of cans I open.
I actually thought about buying a soda stream so I could make my own sparkling water and then add citrus to it but after reading the reviews it seems like they don't work all that well.2 -
I drink the water recommended as a minimum by my nephrologist, but I find that aligns with my natural thirst

I track water but not because I think it's critical to my weight loss, but because I used to just drink very little of it before and it keeps me mindful to stay hydrated. I like it now and would drink it fairly naturally but I feel better knowing I've hit 64 oz.2 -
Sat 28
Exercise: hiking around the sleepaway camp my daughter is going to attend for the first time, on a tour. She is really excited about it now! I am so excited too.
Tracking: Planned the day - though not until right before lunch - but I did!
Calories - Followed the plan
I drink to thirst but I just naturally like to drink a lot of water. I also drink herbal tea throughout the day and now that it's hot some seltzer. I've had people comment before that maybe I drink too much water, so I have never focused on it even though I've seen that advice. I don't drink any caffeine or soda and very little alcohol.
@LazyBlondeChef we have not a soda stream but one from Hamilton Beach (fizzini) that we've had since 2015 and it works very well. I also just heard advertisement for the "sparkel" on a podcast and that sounds interesting. It is pretty fun to be able to fizz your own water. And that's annoying about your recycleable situation.

Limit daily caffeine, seldom have alcohol or soda. Drink minimum 3 cups of water daily and supplement with Sodastream.

Dang… Now I am reminded of the soda thermos looking thing we had when I was a child in the early 70’s. It had co2 cartridges which you used to carbonate the drinks. Such a strange memory out of the blue.3

Pass day. I think I am up to 7.
Water? I drink 5-7 cups a day-just part of my routine. Even easier when exercising2 -

Fishing all day; snacks were enjoyed and everything tracked and accounted for. Still under calories (but did use some earned exercise calories for this special day).

Thanks for the thoughtful opener @SummerSkier I know for certain that I get sufficient water as I have an autoimmune (Sjogren’s) that causes my mouth and eyes to be extremely dry. Drinking water alone will not resolve the discomfort, but does help. I have, in the past, tracked all my fluid intake, and I am well above any possible recommended minimum intake, so I stopped tracking. I do drink a 16 ounce glass of water immediately upon rising in the morning. It helps get the system moving….3 -
