Drink 8 Glasses

Tips for getting your 8 glasses of water daily:

• Make it convenient -- keep a big insulated water bottle full on your desk.
• Make your water bottles fun and nice quality, you're saving $'s anyway.
• Make a bet with your family, friends or co-workers to see who
  can drink more water in a day.
• Have a glass of water when you get up, when you leave the house, when you get to work, etc.
• When you have juice (apple, grape, or orange) fill half the glass with water.
• When you have a junk-food craving, down a glass of water. You will
  feel full, avoid the calories and it lets time pass till the craving fades.
• If you are a tech geek, get an app for your iPhone or smart phone
• Have a glass every hour, on the hour while at work.  End of day = 8 glasses.
• Freeze bits of peeled lemons, limes, and oranges to use in place of ice cubes -- refreshing and helps get in a serving or two of fruit.
• After each trip to the restroom, guzzle an eight-ounce glass to replenish your system.
• Don't allow yourself a diet soda until you've had four glasses of water.  You will find that you won't want it or a half of a can is enough.
• Let ounces of water double grams of fat: When eating something containing 10 grams of fat, drink 20 ounces of water.
• Drink two full glasses at each meal, one before and one after. Also, drink one glass before each snack so you don't eat as much.
• Carry a small refillable water bottle at all times and drink during downtime; while waiting in a bank line, sitting at the doctor's office, etc.
• Always keep your refillable bottle of water handy while watching TV, doing laundry, making dinner, etc.
• When relaxing after a long day, get out the fancy glassware, fill it with cold spring water and enjoy.
