Water Drinking Challenge!

[{sarah}]

I'm upping my water intake to be 2-3L for our upcoming IVF cycle (and to get healthy too of course). So who wants to join me???

Post here & update your water intake each day, it'll be a great way to keep track & also so we can spur each other on.....

I'm in. BG has already given me a target for my first day. So, I will be back tomorrow night to report how I go.

15 July ~ 2.5L

hmmmm, i guess i'll jump in here and try to help with motivation! and of course, it will help me with my slack days when i'm too busy to drink - can't very well spur everyone if i'm being a slacker myself!


better go find a bottle of water, only up to half a litre today...

[{sarah}]

1L so far today, been out most of the day so slackened off too. Still got the evening though

[briggsy's girl]

i'm thinking the same Sarah - i'm about to start painting again, so figure a decent swig evey time i have to move the ladder, i'll have another litre and a half before bed easily!

[ZigZag]

Oh, I so need to do this!! Mind if I join you? Ever since I stopped work 8mths ago and became a SAHM, I'm so bad with remembering to drink even a gls a day. I'm about to do a health kick with a p/trainer too so really need to get on the water wagon

So today - NIL .......runs off to get litre of water

[{sarah}]

Not a prob Amy, the more the merrier

[ZigZag]

Thanks - 1gls down

[briggsy's girl]

5m of cornice painted, 1L of water down for the day! yay!

up the ladder, paint a bit, downthe ladder, move it, swig of water, up the ladder again...

[jaspen]

I'm in - 2 glasses today - tomorrows going to better !!!!!! I promise myself!!!!

We're all going to make the 2L tomorrow girls

When I've done it previously I've made myself drink a glass before I ate anything (cause I have a bad snacking habit) - this sometimes helped.

[shazza]

im in i dont drink enough water

[briggsy's girl]

how's it going today ladies?? i hit 3.6L yesterday - today will be a struggle though - it's soooooo cold down here!

[paradise lost]

Does it have to be water? Or do any drinks count? (not gin, but juice? Tea?)

I need to drink more, so maybe i should join in. What's 2 litres in pints? I have pint glasses....

I think I need to join... not sure how to do i t tho with so many ppl in this house... let me see how I go

[*Nikki*]

I'll join too i hardly drink any water at all... so this will be great

[briggsy's girl]

Bec - i vaguely remember reading somewhere that you should have a minimum of 2L of water per day (no idea what that is in pints!) - and if you are drinking other stuff, you should drink the equivalent in water to cancel out the extra work your body has to do to process it (like the sugars in juice)

i figure aiming for 2L of water is a good start though

i've even managed to talk DH into taking up the challenge - will be interesting to see how long that one lasts..

I found a 1 litre bottle of water in Woolies the other day (98c - woo hoo) and it makes it so much easier to count your intake than the 600ml bottle or individual glasses. Can easily get to 2-3 with that one.
