Target of the Week: H20...Agua...L'Eau...WATER!!!

This week, let's focus on getting enough water.  "I know...I know..." you say back to me.  But let's discuss this a bit more....
  • Did you know that sometimes when you think you are hungry, it is actually because you are thirsty?  So before you get a snack, have a drink.
  • When you look at your skin this winter, does it look a bit ashy?  I mean, yeah, you could throw some lotion on, but what if you hydrate from the inside out?  Novel idea, ehh?
  • Have you ever noticed how clear your skin gets when you are actually drinking enough water?
  • Is your pee the color of lemonade?  Not that you should drink it, but this is a sign that you are getting enough.  The darker it is, the more dehydrated you must be.
  • Coffee, soda, and tea do not count as water. 
  • The recommended amount is 8 cups a day.  However, if you are exercising a lot, you need to increase this recommendation.
So do it because you are exercising more.  Do it because you want to look better.  Do it because your body wants it. 

Drink some more water.
