water challenge!

[nettie]

Just realised that all I have had to drink today is 1 fruit tea, a small glass of diluted juice and a cup of tea!
I have just been reading about water and it's recommended that an adult should be drinking 2.5litres a day so I've set myself a challenge to drink at least that amount each day! Anyone want to join me??

I'm with you Nettie x

I have found that over the last few weeks I've not been drinking so much of the pure stuff. I'll measure how much my glass in work holds and make sure I drink as much as you

 

[katty]

yep i make an effort too with my water intake. i bought a water bottle and its huge, i fill it up at least twice daily and have a few cuppa's too. its so easy to forget to drink.

 

[nettie]

yaay! im sure we can do it! I'm going to buy a litre bottle on my way to work and just use that to keep filling up from the water machine. heres to being hydrated and hopefully bigger losses!

I'll join you Nettie The recent increase in migraines is a sure sign I've not been drinking enough so doing this might make me think more about it. It's so easy to get through a busy a day and realise I've only had 2 or 3 drinks (coffee usually) all day.

Good luck

 

[nettie]

yes i get headaches too, especially since having a promotion at work i am now usually in front of a laptop so doesnt help matters. I used to be a community engagement worker at a childrens centre so i was out and about alot, usually took a bottle of water in my bag and kept hydrated but now i'm deputy leader of the childrens centre and i'm so busy with paper work that I only get a drink when someone in the office is offering to make coffee!

 

[Kezabel]

I'm terrrible with drinking water so i'll join you too
I drink way too much tea, probably about 8-10 cups a day If I could replace some of that with water i'd be well away!

 

[Stackhead]

I usually have at least that while i'm work Makes you need to go to the toilet lots though!

xx

 

[nettie]

yeah i will just need to try to find time to go to the loo now! lol

 

[lolacola]

Yep! I'm normally good during the week as I fill a 1.5 litre bottle with water and drink that while at work, and then I'd usually have about 3-4 pints of water after I get home, but I've been horrendous this weekend - Today for example, I've drunk about a litre and a half of Coke Zero and only half a pint of water !!

 

[Less of me]

Great challenge.
I set myself this challenge last Mondy after weigh in. I only drink water and squash and some days I could go to 3-4 in the afternoon and realize that I'd not had a drink. So each morning I wake up and prepare 2 litres in bottles so I know what I've drunk and how much to go :/ I did measure my glasses so I knew how many to drink but kept losing count so bottles is the way for me.

[NumNumPigsBum]

Count me in! I'll aim for a random 2.25l Means I just have to fill my bottle up 3 times and drink it all Trying to find the litre volvic bottles around here is like trying to find a needle in a haystack!! So, the 750ml will have to do!

Cheers everyone!!

Ill join in too!

I never drink water as I really don't like it, but I will give it a go!

I can't say that I will be able to do the 2 litres though! maybe start at 1 a day till I can get used to it!

Hopefully if I can get into water, then I can stop the coffee!

I used to not like drinking water; but I found it helped having it really cold... Or maybe take a bottle of sugar free squash with you (or decant an amount in a bottle that is easy to carry) that way your getting the water you need but it's more bearable! X
