A Simple Health Choice

in getting healthy

This week I’m getting into a new healthy habit; drinking water.

It’s not very original I know, but as from today I’m replacing all my cold drinks with water. For hot drinks I’ll still have two cups of coffee in the morning, but after that no pop or squash, just water. I’m not counting how many glasses  I drink, I want this to be a simple change in my food choices. Does anyone want to join me?

I so drank too much coffee yesterday. I will join you. I will drink tea in the morning and one coffee – but I will aim to be adding some glasses of water and in the afternoon and evening I shall be caffeine free. Hub has gone pop free and drinks LOTS of water now and feels really good for it. AM WITH YOU

I’m in! The central heating we have in Canada makes me and my skin awfully dehydrated.

I just had to look up “squash” online. Never knew such a drink existed. Interesting stuff.

Squash–yeah, I didn’t know what it was either, but we have it in France–or some equivalent it seems.

I’m with you on the water. I am usually pretty good about water but with the cold weather I’ve switched to coffee–oh, and can I abuse that stuff. I’d rather have my coffee than eat during the day! But I will at least try to add back the water in between cups of joe. Maybe warm water will help–I just can’t be drinking cold liquids right now. I’m chilled to the bone.
