I've only had 1 liter today... I will work on the second. I shouldn't have had that Lemonade/Iced Tea; it was full of sugar.
 
I'm finally getting around to using the Water Your Body adroid app to remind me to stay on track. So far, so good. Um, this is day 1 tho so, we'll see.
 
Wow. My goal had been 64 oz but, this thing says I need to do 83 oz. Suddenly my 16 oz down seem like not much at all. Oh well. I guess I'll keep chugging away.

Where are my sister drinkers? Downing a glass of water, I hope.

Check in, ladies.
 
I picked back up on my water intake as of this past weekend, since I'm trying a raw foods diet. 64oz a day so far.

I did 64 oz. That was my normal goal but, this program has pushed me up to 83 oz. I'll try for that today. I hope I don't float away. G'night.
 
I fell of for a while, but I'm back and determined to drink more water. :fistshake:

Been doing better these pst few days, but I know that what I'm getting in isn't enough. Just trying to take it slow.
 
This is a great challenge. I hate drinking plain water. My previous intake was like 4 OZ, but I started drinking this aloe-infused water (drinking it now) and my intake is 50 OZ per day. Does that still count? I've been creeping up on 100 OZ per day past couple of days...probably too much but I'm hooked. My goal is to stay at 100 OZ per day with plenty of excercise!

Yep. That counts. KUTGW!
 
Still moving with the flow, I've been doing pretty good the last week or so.
 
This is a great challenge...I need to get back on track with my water consumption. I'm aiming for 2 liters per day. I like lemon-thyme water and herbal teas.
 
I've got my whole family drinking more water (that happens when you don't buy other options. :grin:) And now that it's getting warmer, I can't buy it fast enough so, we went back to a water service. This works great and always gets us all drinking more water, more often. And having a hot spigot works great for my herbal teas. It's a 2fer.

I haven't been checking in the past few days but, I'm still doing pretty well and tracking my water intake with the Water Your Body mobile app for android. :yep:
 
I've been doing pretty good, I get at least 16oz a day now. Today I got 32oz!!! Keeping multiple water bottles ready to swap out when one gets empty helps a lot. Also choosing water with meals instead of sugary drinks, and keeping it by my computer desk (the place I spend the most of my time)
 
I've been doing OK, but its been hot lately. I try to get in 1 tbsp of coconut vinegar in my water daily. :lick: I tend to drink it out of a 16 oz glass.
 
Bumping this up for more check ins.

As for me, I'm doing at least 40 oz a day. That's down from my goal but, I'm also doing herbal teas. My eyeballs are floating. :spinning:
 
I'm still doing great with my water intake, 72oz a day is really good for me.
 
checking in! man i fell off kinda. ive been drinking water everyday but not enough. i have the water your body app too but i just ignore it lol, i need to get back on it!
oh, so herbal tea counts toward daily water intake?
 
Checking in I am still on my water and tea kick....thanks to this darn forum I've switched out my Green tea for Bamboo leaf tea...been drinking it since Saturday. I get 2 glasses in a day because they say you can steep the tea bags twice so I drink 2 glasses of tea a day now in addition to my 70oz of water.

Erm, I guess it can count towards you water intake but, I'm not counting it. May as well tho. I don't add sugar or anything to it. I guess it's a personal choice on whether you want to count it or not since it's your own challenge. But technically, I think it does count towards your water intake. :look:

As for the app, I think my phone died and I didn't reactivate the alerts because, now that you mention it, I haven't been hearing it lately. :blush: That may be why I'm not drinking enough. :lol:

bign__17 Bamboo leaf tea, huh? Does that have high silica content or something? How's that taste? *mentally makes room in my tea cabinet for yet another tea*
 
NJoy i know this question wasnt directed towards me but yep bamboo has the highest amount of silica than any other source in the world. Horsetail has 5%-7% while bamboo has 70%. Ive been drinking 3 cups a day its addicting! :lick:
 
I couldn't have said it better!

The taste isn't bad at all. B/4 this challenge I use to be one of those people that needed a hand full of sugar for my tea, coffee was always light and sweet. After I started this challenge I gave up drinking coffee all together, and went to putting only 2-3 packets of sugar in my tea. Well with the Bamboo tea it is so light that I drink it with NO sugar.
 
one of my first posts....*peeks in, hoping there's a seat in the back* .....really need to be on this challenge. Goal is 64oz per day along with herbal teas. Sodas and drinks with artificial sweeteners not an option.
 
I found drinking water is easier when I workout...get 2L in with no provlem

I was doing some research and realize that I still have DE (Diatomaceous Earth). I was taking it but stopped and forgot that I have it. Food grade DE is 89% silica. Just sharing.
