How much water did you drink today?

Here are some random facts about drinking water…

  • Drinking water suppresses your appetite
  • If you don’t drink enough water your body’s reaction is to retain the water it already has
  • It only takes a loss of 1% – 2% of your body’s ideal water content to cause dehydration
  • Drinking ice cold water actually helps with weight loss

Here are simple tips to help you stay hydrated..

  • Never pass a water cooler without at least taking sip of water
  • Spice up your water with lemons or oranges to help increase your water intake
  • Drink at least 8 – 8oz glasses of water if you are at proper weight.. (add an additional glass for every 25 lbs. of excess weight)
  • Never set down an empty glass of water.. Make sure you have a full glass around you at all times
