Get Healthy: Hydrate!

I've known for a long time that I drink a woefully inadequate amount of water a day, so I finally decided to buy a special water bottle that holds all I need to drink a day. This way I can monitor my water levels without having to use my memory. I drink even less than I thought! I thought maybe I would drink half of the suggested amount, but it seems to be something more along the lines of 1/5 (I've been drinking down to about that first line). I wonder if this could explain my chapped lips, dry eyes, dry ears, dry nose and spare tire. I wonder if I may be slowly mummifying myself.

I'm with you Megan. The problem is, I'm just not thirsty. Tori can drink gallons at a time. It's hard to drink as much as they recommend.

It is hard to drink if you aren't thirsty. I always had to measure what I was supposed to drink, too. I've been slacking, though I think Max and I drink pretty much considering how often I refill my little brita pitcher.

That was a good idea. Is Poppy still envious of your big ba ba?

I was reading where that total water intake should include the water in the foods you eat also.
