    Re: Water Challenge: 64 oz +

    O.K. ADBB I'm really struggling with the water, I'm averaging about 56 oz of water a day. I'm getting better. Any suggestions?

      It's open to everyone. We are all down for the same cause.

      P.S. Is it open to only those in EI or everyone? If everyone, maybe we could ask to have it moved to the "challenge" forum and more people would join?

        I find if I am online I can get through quite a lot of water by having it in a sports-top bottle and taking a mouthful every time I am waiting for the pages to load.
        I am surprised how many times I have to refill the bottle without really noticing I am drinking!
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

          Harlem, I also suggest using a straw. Also, keep your water however you like it. Me, I dont likewater unless its ice cold. I can drink it when its not but I am not fond of it. I HATE room temp water. ugh! Some ppl love it but not I. Anyway so I have an insulated mug which keeps my ice solid for 6 hours or more. I put a straw in and viola! I take it every where I go and when I go to a different room it goes too. I find I drink more at the PC as well. I take 5 huge sips from the straw everytime i change pages pretty much. It just goes faster with a straw and ya get more with every sip I think.

          I read this one post where ppl sliced a cucumber (or half one) and put them in a picher of water. some left it out at room temp and some chilled it. Cuke water is supposedly really great!! Maybe give it a try?

              I am still eyeing that pink bubba mug with envy. I have to go to WalMart tonight and I'm going to try to find one. It's so darn cute and useful.

              I'm not doing so well with my water today but I'm going to go have lunch and step it up a bit.

              Hope you're all doing well today!

              Cheers!!!

                "Chuggalug People" the water challenge is on and I'm doing much better averaging 48 to 64 oz. (great progress for me) One day at a time. Thanks for the support, there is nothing like accountability. ADBB is the best. Drink up!

                  I would love to join this challenge if i could. I have a nasty little secret to share. Starting today, one of my employee's jobs is to remind me every hour to drink 12 ounces. Not sure if that is considered using staff productivly or not, but hey, it is working!

                        Hey everybody I just hit 64 oz and its not 5:00 pm yet. You have no idea how far I've come. I feel like brake dancing. This water challenge is really starting to pay off.

                            My deerpark guy came today and I am loaded up for the weekend! I am so glad I ordered water delivery. The water cooler really helps me meet my quota.
