I have been refilling my water bottle since I started drinking water on the regular back in 1998. I mean I drank water but only 1/2 - 1 cup every other day. I just never could stand tap water. I gulp soda & kool Aid since forever but water was not on my priority list of things to do. Now that I am growing in my health consciousness that now when I went to Walmart over the weekend I bought a brand new reusable water bottle. Now this is a kids one the one I bought is a 32oz mean Big Gulp & it helps me really gauge my water drinking. I am so full of it water that is that I am about to blow! Not literally. Okay?! People mind on the matter at hand. So I am so into this I am researching trying to find the perfect water bottle. I don't care for the ones that you have to sip & the top is accessible. I prefer to have top that I can open, drink, then spin the top back on. Here a few I found:
but I really this puppy is really handy: It has its on BAG!! Is that cool or what? Well one is $18 & the other one is $24. If you know of any others please feel free to hit me up on my Sparkpage with suggestions.
There are way too many choices out there!!! I just re-fill my poland springs 32 oz bottle when working out...otherwise I am seen drinking from a huge plastic "GULP" cup from a convenience store.. for me using a straw forces me to drink more...
now the bad news.... last year my electrolytes were way down because I was drinking too much water!! Go figure! I've been doing this for over 10 years! My sodium & calcium #'s were way outta wack and I was told I was in danger... and to stop drinking water.. one glass a day and 3 G2's or Gatorade's... I went for blood tests every 2 weeks it was awful because I mostly drink water.... needless to say things kind of leveled out after 4 months, and they changed one of medications and I haven't had a test for a few months.. I am back to my 10 cups a day
Hay, way to go, I have a Klean Kanteen 40 oz. it is stainless steel I take to the gym with me, I brought one for every member of my family not all was 40 oz though. You can ordered them for amazon.com. I keep a 32 oz glass beer mug in the fridge with hinkley water in it and fill it only when I finish the whole thing. this really helps me when at home to see just how much I am drinking. I was so much like you I did not like water pepsi was my drink of choose and it was not diet pepsi. Well Girl Friend We Do Know What To Do Don't We
