Water, Water everywhere, and i am drinking every drop!

Keeping yourself hydrated is very important, especially if you are trying to be healthy and/or lose weight.

Now FYI i am not a doctor and too much water does risk hyponatremia, which is water intoxication, it comes from drinking too much water in two short a period of time causing there to not be enough salt in your blood. But this does take liters and liters in the span of like an hour. WebMD says that your kidney’s can expel about half a liter of water an hour which is about 15oz. Basically i wouldn’t try for much more than about a gallon a day, again i am not a doctor and this is just what i have read online.

I think a gallon is a good amount of water to shoot for each day. The pluses of drinking enough water are amazing skin, improved digestion, better liver function, weight loss, more energy…..the list goes on and on.

20150524_110913  20150524_120959 Here is my cheap and easy way that to make myself drink more water until my new water bottle shows up from amazon. I have a camelbac that i also use a lot but i wanted something to add some flavor.

How much water do you drink?

I love pinterest for fitness motivation.

Last week i did my bikini body workouts but i missed a day or two due to moving and today i start work back at my great job so i need to re-learn how to fit my workouts into a 9-5 job….or 8:30-5:30 as it would be and getting to deal with traffic on my slight commute. Wish me luck! Ill keep you posted!

Howdy all!!!!

The best way to keep my goal of being fit again is to keep it in the forefront of my mind. I already talked about putting motivational pictures on my phone, which i like most people look at a million times a day, and that is going great.

Now i am taking it a step further. I am setting up a reward system.

This is obviously to help me lose my initial weight that i have gained back and then some.

And to keep me going long after that.

I think this will be a great way to buy new fitness gear and other things i need to stay motivated to stay in shape.

Another thing i need to do but haven’t done yet is set up a motivation board. These seem tl be insanely helpful. Since i haven’t done it yet i pulled some examples from google to give to and idea. They can range from simple tl complex, whatever you need to motivate you.
