Tuesdays are the day we give you a woo-hoo! for making even the tiniest of changes and actions towards achieving your healthy goals. Rome was not built in a day and getting to your goals will take time too.
For long term success, it's actually more effective to make smaller changes over time than to try and do the big drastic changes in a short time mainly because the tiny changes won't trigger your Inner Resistance Monster who always wants to push you back to your old comfortable ways. When you make smaller to even minuscule changes, it feels effortless, it will stick longer over the years, and it's better than doing zero.
Today, we're all about water. Water is vital to achieving and keeping vibrant health. Really! I can't even begin to tell you how important water is to well being. Also, water is one of the best beauty treatments out there. One of the reasons I look way younger than 40 is because I drink up! Water is a girl's best friend.
But lots of you don't like to drink water because you don't like the pee part. Well, peeing is actually really good for you after the water drink because you're flushing out your system and that water is taking the toxins right along with it. If you want to drop weight, you gotta drink water.
Next time you feel hungry, drink a glass or two of water first and wait 5-10 minutes, and see if you're still hungry. Sometimes that hunger pain is actually a dehydration need. Your body wants water not food.
Drinking just one glass of water at a time is better than drinking nothing. Coffee, tea, juice, sports drinks, and sodas do not count as water breaks. Just because something is a liquid does not mean it is hydrating your body. Water is the way to hydrate for daily wellness.
If you'd like a water reminder, on Twitter, I do a 2-3 times daily hydration reminder usually morning, afternoon, and night time. Follow me @skinnyjeans on Twitter for the water nudges.
