I have decided I want to look better and feel better for spring and summer.
I have always been the worse about staying in my hole ( house) all winter. I have decided that I am going to make an effort to walk at least 3-4 times a week. And try to drink my water. B4 I start Rodeo and horse weather. Help Me Everyone. I hate water. I am going to start a Water Sticky for my Desk and reward myself some how when I tally 8.. Mel -------------------- |

Wow good for you Mel!! You know, water still counts if you put something else in it like squash (which I think is Kool-aid or whatever for you over there). It doesn't have to be straight water! Tea and coffee also counts as well although its bad for you in other ways. Give it a week of drinking 2 litres a day and I bet you'll notice the difference! Keep us updated! xx

There is also flavored water. I know Walmart has some Caffeine Free, Calorie Free Carbonated Water that me and the kids love.
You'll get used to it after a while. You'll also find you feel better after a bit. And, just think how beautiful your skin, hair, and nails are going to be. -------------------- Jeanie - SAHM to Kristen 13, Cade 12, Conner 8, Keegan 3

Mel
I find that most people generally detest water due to being used to sodas and other "drinks". I bet if you drink nothing but water for a week or two, you won't hate it so much and also won't be as apt to pick up that soda or glass of tea. If I were you, you could try sqeezing some lemon or another fruit that you like into the water to liven it up a bit. Or you could buy the flavored water, or even put a little pinch of Koolaid and sugar in. Gradually decrease and you will get used to it more. Work your way up. Start with three 3 oz. glasses a day. Then after a few days, drink four 3 oz. glasses a day. Or something like that. Start small. If you drink smaller glasses more frequently, it won't be so bad. And GL with the walking, it's good for you!!! ![]() -------------------- |
