Only drank 80oz today. I'm trying to change my time parameters because I woke up three times last night. :ohwell: It's hard for me to go back to sleep, so I'm trying to stop all fluids by 9:30pm.

Ah well. I started off behind schedule today and, at 11:30 pm, I still have another 30 ounces to go. Welp! I'm gonna do it! My eyeballs will be floating shortly but, I'm gonna hit my goal.

Sorry I have not checked in. I'm still at it and drinking about 64 oz a day ( more on workout days). I've even started eating cleaner than I already have been yep:

I'm so late.. but please don't hold prevent me from joining. This last quarter of the year I plant to drink 2litres of water a day.

But this week... for week one I'll be content with 1 litre.

I need this challenge. I spend so much money on products and I'm not doing the genuine things to make my hair grow, such as keep my body and hair hydrated from the inside.

Today is the day I kick off!! Thanks ladies.

I'm sipping some water as I type:grin:

NJoy Please add me to this so needed challenge!

I don't ever drink water so I'm going to be realistic and say to start off I'm going to do (4) 8oz bottles a day (32 oz).

I will up my water when I am consistent with 32 oz daily.

I'm going to join this challenge too! Not for hair care, but just to increase my water levels.

I went to the gym today for a body composition analysis, and she measured my body's water content.

The ideal is to be at 60% or more, I was at 54%... Which is great to start.

.... She said most new comers to the gym were measured at 30%... Which is what she had expected me to be at, and some people as low as 15%!!!!!

I don't know how long it takes to up your body's natural water content level, she told me to start drinking more, and come get remeasured in a month...

You need to drink half your body weight in ounces (ex. 150 lbs needs 75 oz water) for 3 consecutive days to properly rehydrate. So, consistency is key.

Adding you to the group. Welcome aboard!

Aint been here in a minute but I am still drinking lots of water. I'm up to 4 liters a day. That's 4 1lt bottles of water. The first one is the original Smart Water and the next three are filtered. However the second one has 1/4 cup of aloe vera juice in it. I have finally made this a nice little habit.
1 in the morning during my workout which is finished before I even leave my house
2 during the day at work
1 at home after work an hour after dinner

Hi NJoy! I completely forgot about this thread...but not about my water. I have been doing pretty well with remembering to get water in everyday but I am only getting about 1.5L and my goal was 3. I appreciate the reminder so I can get back to striving!

Bringing my water bottle to bed. Often in the night I wake up thirsty, but just roll over and go back to sleep.
Tonight, I'll be prepared. ;-)
