drink more water

I set a goal a long time ago to drink more water. Specifically to drink eight glasses of water a day. I still have no idea why this was a difficult goal but I just could reach it. There were days when I would not drink any water and not even realize it until the next day. So I began asking how people did it. I read many suggestions got a water bottle to take to work. I would give myself no other choice and sipped the water while I was working. Then one day I did it. For the first time ever I drank eight glasses of water in a single day. I felt like dancing. My intake of water has increased dramatically and I no longer reach for sodas to “quench my thirst.” So I am marking this completed.

I’m doing better than before. Previously I drank maybe one glass a day. Right now I am up to four glasses on a regular basis. I am planning to take my water bottle to work and sip on it through out the day instead of the soda I have this past week. This should get me to my goal of eight glasses a day.

Okay I haven’t been doing good on this one. So I’m going to try a more in your face route. I put a pitcher of water in my fridge. That way every time I open it looking for something else I’ll see it and drink some, even if it’s just half a glass. That’s more than I previously drank. Let’s see what happens.
