Spent the day cleaning the apartment. Some nice clean pictures will come later tonight!
Something on my to do list lately: Drink more water!!!
I picked up this cup and am trying to refill it often and promote my water consumption.
The copco looks like a cup you would get with a frozen latte at starbucks, but it is hard plastic, reusable, BPA free, eco-friendly, and dishwasher safe (cause no one like doing dishes).
I also use these type of water bottles at the gym and on the go (Contigo brand water bottles). They are awesome because they don't leak, they hold a ton of water, and they make drinking the water easy.
Other ways that can help you to drink more water is:
- carry water bottles with you everywhere
- put sliced fruits in your water (lemons, limes, oranges, cucumbers)
- drink carbonated water (I rock the seltzer everyday - my favorite is the kind that come in regular soda cans and not the liter bottles. That way you use it all and there is no leftover soda that inevitable loses it's fizz before your next beverage) Seltzer is also great with fruit!
- Add ice! Cold water always goes down faster than warm water in my opinion.
- Try and match up one glass of water with every non-water drink such as soda.

Do you guys have any other helpful tips for drinking more water?
i take my water bottle with me everywhere!
ReplyDeleteEvery morning I fill my nalgene bottle with water and splash of 100% cranberry juice. I love the tartness and always drink it right down. I also use a carabiner clip on the strap of my school bag to attach my nalgene so I never have to struggle to find a place for it.
ReplyDeleteNice Brunch!!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to work on getting my water, I only drink enough when I am actively making it a point to. Somedays I get to dinner time and go "c--p, I haven't drank any water yet today" lol
I get seriously cranky if I don't drink a lot of water. I always have it with me. Also remember that fruits and veggies can be a good source of water! Things like cantaloupe, watermelon, and peaches are a good source of liquids.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love cascadian farms!
Definitely need more water on my list. I'm way dehydrated lately!
ReplyDeleteI drink two 16-oz glasses in the morning while emailing/blogging/commenting. It seems like a lot, but over the course of a few hours it's not difficult at all!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try that cranberry tip! I love cranberry juice and I bet it tastes great!
ReplyDeleteI'm getting a lot better about drinking water. We have a bell that goes off at 9:45 everyday at work and I fill up my bottle then if I haven't already, then again at lunch and then one more time in the afternoon if I remember so that helps.
