I was thinking in the morning what i am going to make today different and I though I would just focus on how many glasses of water I drink during the day.  As I read on the Gather many times, many people has a problems to drink enough the water through the day and it is the same with me. I am almost never thirsty and then in the afternoon I start to feel dizzy and realize that I forgot to drink. So this morning I started with two glasses of water. I went to shopping later for few things and I took a little bootle of water with me. I was continueing my ritual all day long and I felt much better. If you read this post and haven't drink enough water for today  go to the kitchen and drink two glasses of water. You will see how much different it can make.

Yup, water makes a big difference. I drink a lot of water and juice and tea and coffee and I notice it when I forget to drink.

Drinking 8 glasses a day was one of my new years resolutions. So far, it's still going well. As you say, if you can get a glass or 2 in the morning, it makes the rest of the day go so much easier and you don't feel dehydrated on behind on the 8 glass a day count. Great tip!

Great start drinking water. I've slowly started to drink it more, especially when I'm working out

You are so right. I used to always drink water then we moved and I didn't like the taste of water. Now I have remind myself to drink it. Thanks for the reminder.

alot of people eat when they are really thirsty also. So, if you drink your water, you won't feel as hungry...and you'll burn more calories by running to the bathroom more! ;)
Thanks for playing my UPS/Thief game!

I have water with me every where I go usually. I love the taste so I don't have a problem getting enough of it. I don't drink pop, it just poisons the body! Juice is too sweet unless I dilute it with water so I just skip it and eat a piece of fruit instead.

Good luck Dagmara!

I need to drink more water.

Good for you. I have started to drink more water after hearing about it all over Gather lately. I have already drank two glasses today. That is change for me. I am used to drinking coffee all day.

Happy Valentines Day Dagmara.

Water makes a BIG difference

Water is my downfall too. I used to drink 90 oz a day, now I barely drink any!
