So, I know drinking water is really important to staying healthy. I know. I know. I know. My husband has been telling me that not drinking enough water is the cause of many of my ailments for the last couple of years. Only recently have I really seen the other side of this.
A couple of weeks ago, I started drinking about 6 bottles of water a day, in addition to some G2 and Iced Tea. Being this hydrated made me feel great. Not good, not alright, not hyrdrated.. but GREAT. I wasn’t as tired, I didn’t need as much caffiene, and I felt healthier.
For the last three days, I haven’t been drinking enough water. I know this because yesterday I had a killer headache, I woke up with one today, and I can feel a slight UTI coming on. I attribute these ailments to not drinking enough water. As soon as I drank two bottles of water today, I felt so much better. So I’ve yet again learned my lesson.
I am a person who needs flavor, so I put zero calorie, sugar free packets into my water. I get them really cheap and they’re the off-brand of Crystal Light. They make water so much better (except when I am working out… when only plain water tastes good) but last night I realized one pack was for two bottles instead of one. This makes sense because one packet per one bottle was really, really flavorful and stained my tongue for a day. Nonetheless, the packets make it easier for me to meet my water quota.
