Drink Your Water Challenge

I got in all of my water today. I'm so happy right now but wow, the bathroom was my friend today :lol:
@Aggie omgsh! I can totally relate! I was so tired of going to the bathroom that I started to catch an attitude :laugh:. Eventually our bodies will adjust and our bathroom trips won't be as frequent :yep:.
 
Aside from my bamboo tea, which I want to bump up to two cups, I only drink water. Once I get home from work I switch from the bottle to a cup. I think I need to stick with the bottle. I need to buy a straw for this bottle so I can sip all day
 
Finished my 64 oz for today! And good job to all the ladies who finished yesterday. It's not too late to start for those who didn't. You could pump yourself up to get serious about it tomorrow if you wanted to :brucelee:
 
Finished with my gallon for the day! Having a water bottle with a straw makes such a big difference, I left my water bottle home so I've been drinking the 16.9 fl oz bottles we supply at work. It's much harder for me when I can't just sip from a straw but I motored through and actually finished a head of my 4'clock challenge time. By the time I leave church tonight I will probably get in another 24oz.
 
I havent offically joined this challenge but whenever I see it I always grab an extra glass of water in the evenings for a grand total of around 80 oz per day. Is anyone drinking alkaline water?

The 5 Major Health Benefits of Drinking Alkaline Water

Improve your health, supercharge your immune system, and fight the aging process with antioxidant-rich alkaline water! The benefits of ionized alkaline water are vast and remarkable!

Toxins are the number one cause of aging. They are often a result of poor diet, pollution, and stress. Toxins can build up in your body causing cell damage that leads to premature aging. The best way to fight toxins and detoxify your body is with antioxidants. And it’s as easy as drinking antioxidant-rich ionized alkaline water.

The 5 Major Alkaline Water Benefits:
1. DETOXIFY

Detoxify your body to remove normal acidic waste products accumulated daily, plus remove toxins accumulated in your body from your environment, prescription drugs, unnatural foods and from the “normal” process of aging. Acid wastes collected in the body can lead to more serious health conditions. Drinking alkaline water daily can help neutralize the acidity that builds up in the body and wash acid waste products from cells and tissues.

2. HYDRATION
Hydrate your body: this is basic to maintain or regain optimum health. During ionization, your alkaline water filter forms your water into micro clusters that are more easily absorbed at the cellular levels thus “super-hydrating” your body. Alkaline Water is rich in important alkaline minerals such as calcium and magnesium, and it’s super-hydrating and energizing as a result of electrolysis filtering. Ionized alkaline water is filtered and ionized, removing the harmful contaminants and leaving only the vital minerals.

3. OXYGENATE / ANTIOXIDANTS
Higher alkaline pH water acts as an antioxidant, scavenging for and neutralizing harmful free radicals. Because alkaline water has the ability to give up electrons, it can effectively neutralize and block free-radical damage to the body.

Ionized alkaline water seeks out free radicals and converts them into oxygen which your body can use for energy production and tissue oxygenation. Cancer and most other illnesses cannot survive in an oxygenated, alkaline environment.

4. ALKALIZE YOUR BODY’S pH
Alkaline rich water helps balance the body’s pH, which tends to be acidic because of our high acid food diet, stress and exposure to environmental toxins such as smog. Alkalize your body pH from acidic to alkaline pH, because cancer and many other illnesses cannot live in alkaline environments. Alkaline is the “normal” state of healthy persons. Restoring the proper pH balance of the body leads a boost in energy and overall health and wellness.

5. ENHANCE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Enhance your immune system to maximize your body’s ability to fight off disease and heal itself.

A pH imbalance (due to highly acidic diets the majority of people eat) can cause the body’s cells to suffocate. When this happens, those cells starts break down and eventually die. As a result, the systems that support the immune system become weakened by the suffocation and the functioning of the immune system breaks down.


You can add half a teaspoon of baking soda to one gallon of water for a cheap alternative to these products:

I've known for a while about alkaline water but I think that all of this science made alkaline/ionized (whatever that means) water is a sham. Real alkaline water has bicarbonate in it and it usually reads pH balanced (7) but acts alkaline in the body. Not that 9.5 flat stuff in the store. River water is alkaline. You could make some at home by adding a pinch of baking powder/soda to it (bicarbonate). I wanted to start drinking mine with a pinch of salt.
