Day Four. — 12 months ago
Worth doing!
Woot.
First day of school.
Gives me less time to drink it because I can’t in the morning…
Don’t want to pee at school. Phobia.
But I’m remembering WELL. :]
Another successful day.

Well today was only slightly harder because I wasn’t thirsty.
The first two days, I drank 3 liters (99 ounces).
It’s almost midnight & I’ve only had 1.5 liters.
Don’t worry, I’ll finish.
& then have to pee all night, lol.
Done!
Worth doing!
Drinking water will be soooo so so good for me.
I used to think that you’re supposed to drink 8 GLASSES of water a day & I just can’t handle that,
But I finally read up on it & it’s only 8 CUPS, or 64 ounces.
Which is like 4 glasses of water.
I have a pretty liter bottle that used to hold fiji water,
But now I’m using it as a sort of measuring bottle (that I drink from).
It’s about 33 ounces, so two a day will be good. :}
Wish me luck!
Edit: I did it!
& I didn’t drink it all at once, either.
I’m sick right now, and yesterday I drank 1 GALLON of bottled water. Yes y’all I did it! But you know what… I don’t think I can keep it up. That is just WAAY too much water. I was running to the bathroom like every 30 minutes. And although it feels good to pee (yeah I said it!) I really don’t like having to rely on the toilet so often.
I just googled exactly how many ounces 1 gallon of water is… and it’s 128 ounces!! Oh my buhjeezus!!!
But that just goes to show you, that IT’S POSSIBLE to drink 64 ounces of water if I, lil’ ol’ me, can go through 128 ounces in a day. And it actually makes the goal of 50 ounces (according to The Chicago Tribune, to divide your weight by 2) for the recommended daily intake of water, a lot more reachable.
My co-worker gave me a weight watchers water mug. It’s 32 ounces and I go through it pretty quickly while I’m at work. I’ve been drinking 8-16 ounces before work and the balance once I get home. So far, so good.
In spite of my cold, I have not been drinking enough water. I’m thirsty, but it’s more for orange juice or cocoa (not at the same time, fortunately!). I’m really trying to drink my water today.
I didn’t feel well over the weekend and I forget that I have water sitting next to me. I’ve been drinking about 40 ounces lately and I’m working back up to 64. I can’t believe how good my skin looks and feels!
I accomplished this today!
Yesterday, I drank 48 ounces and I actually could have drank more today if I would have had enough filtered water at work. Hopefully, this is flushing some of the toxins and sluggishness out of my system.
My plan is to drink 1 16 ounce glass in the morning, take my 32 ounce container with me to work and drink another 16 ounces in the evening.
And yes, I am spending a bunch of time in the bathroom these days.
