Day 42

I know I need to drink more fluids. I’ve heard it time and time again, especially when I was actively doing Weight Watchers to drink 68oz of water/sugar free-non-decaffeinated liquids a day. I even heard to drink 1/2 of your body weight in oz. for me that would me about 75 oz... you do the math.

The other day when I was hurting after our cardio run/warmup, Erika was surprised that both Kazeem and I had not drank sufficient water throughout the day.... in fact, I would venture do say that I was probably REALLY dehydrated!

I’m a water drinker, when i remember to drink it. And that usually is the problem. I forget. And if I drink coffee in the morning (very routinely) I can nurse that coffee til noon.

So I’ve been making more of an effort to drink cold water and teas. I have been making huge batches of mint ice tea, along with a good amount of green tea and taking a few containers with me to work. And I found that making this more fun, is to have interesting containers sitting on my desk reminding me to DRINK DRINK DRINK!

Now, the bladder on the bottom is most commonly used for when I go hiking...

...but sometimes, I make exceptions!

So, my intentions are good. And if you don't find me at my desk... check the nearest ladies room!

I swear, its the little things in life that keep ya going!
