Water, Water Everywhere
I've been saying for a while now that I need to start drinking water (seriously, I drink nothing but cokes with the occasional alcoholic drink or glass of juice thrown in). Water is so good for you, helps you lose weight, would help with my stomach problems, and I drink none of it.
Christine and I were talking and we think we have set up a system to help us drink water. For months now, I've had my Outlook set up to remind me to drink a glass of water every two hours. For the most part, I've been ignoring them. Today, on our way back from lunch, Christine said that we should be water buddies. When the little pop-up makes an appearance, we grab our glasses and high-tail it to the kitchen to get a glass of water. We're also going to get little jars with our names on them and put a penny in the jar each time we drink a glass of water or work out. We're still working on what the pennies should stand for (we need to hammer out our reward system), but I think watching the pennies grow will help motivate me to drink water. I eventually would like to extend this program to helping us eat better during lunch (our lunches really suck), but it's best to smart with small steps. Wish us luck in our quest for better health!

A few months ago, I started drinking a lot more water. Aside from the annoying side-effect of needing to pee every hour, it's helping. Good luck!
