So, after one day of doing well on my water consumption, I began to slack off. :/ I think a big part of it was the fact that I was on the road running errands the next few days, and didn't really carry a bottle of water with me, and I wasn't sure when I would be able to make a "pit stop" at a public restroom.
To solve the bottled water problem, I did some research. I am somewhat finicky with my water - I don't like bottled water, because it never seems cold enough to me, nor do I like dealing with condensation. I wanted a water bottle that I could reuse and that would have a wide mouth opening so I could put in some ice cubes, and also one that would take care of the "sweating" problem with condensation. I found this. (affiliate link :)) The reviews were pretty good, so I ordered it today.
So, we'll see how it goes. I really want to change my water drinking habits. I think perhaps I will do it gradually, maybe starting out with 2 glasses of water a day (in addition to my regular fluid intake) and just work up to 8 glasses in total, spaced out like I had originally planned (between 9am and 5pm).
So that's where I am at the moment. More to come!
