I know it's not on my diet but who can resist a warm chocolaty chewy brownie with a cold side of chocolate ice cream? NOT ME!! I now have what i need to get through it all. P.S. Honey made dinner too, aren't i the luckiest gal alive?
Hi Wendi, thanks for checking out my blog. A hubby who cooks....lucky girl! I read about your struggles to drink water. I do like to drink water but I also love my Diet Cokes way too much. I used to play a game with myself that I could only have a Diet Coke after I finished a glass of water. Alot of times I didn't even want the Diet Coke after the water but even if I did I got in extra water. Maybe you could try something like that. You can change your tastes over time and start liking water.
I have a tough time with the water as well. I'm addicted to my iced tea but I sweeten it with sweet n low which I know isn't very good for me so I've been trying to drink more water.
I do the same thing that Deb does: 1 glass of water to 1 glass of tea. Plus when I leave the house I bring a water bottle with me. Sometimes that helps too.
Welcome to my new blog. I've set up this blog in hopes that i will be selected to be a brand ambassador for Orthaheel. My name is Wendi, I am 38 years old. I have been married for 17 years and we have a 16 year old daughter. I own and run a staffing agency so I spend alot of time at my desk, since I have a desk job I don't get much exercise and am determinded to change that. One way or another.
Every relationship in your life is a current moving you toward your dreams or away from them. Not all friendships should be given the same value. You must recognize which ones are making deposits into your life and which ones are making withdrawals. Which ones increase you and which ones decrease you. Which ones feed you and which ones feed off of you. There are four types of people in your life: those who add, subtract, multiply, and divide. Your responsibility is to get away from those who are constantly criticizing, whining and complaining. Get close to those who add and multiply to your life, those who support you,encourage you, pray for you, coach you and even correct you. Avoid relationships with those who do not discern your worth.

Reasons to drink water

Water is necessary for your body to digest and absorb vitamins and nutrients
Water is a natural appetite suppressant

Water carries away waste from the body
Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers

Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue
The brain is 74% water
Muscles are 75% water
Bone is 22% water
Blood is 83% water
Almost 2/3rds of our body weight is "water weight"
A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen
