It also has a recommended volume depending on your body weight. I'm guessing it goes with what Ms. RN said regarding flushing out minerals and vitamins with too much water. App is called Water Your Body :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455773919451352944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-13755708231061106952013-11-09T15:43:07.977+08:002013-11-09T15:43:07.977+08:00Happy birthday!

At the end of the day, nauubos ko sya aside from the water I drink with meals. I am proud to say that my blood sugar level, uric acid, BP, etc. is pretty good. Water really works wonders! :)shockinginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06134231802383933401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-47846949276499415812013-11-04T23:17:40.048+08:002013-11-04T23:17:40.048+08:00ako rin count me in on this exciting challenge! :)...ako rin count me in on this exciting challenge! :) i drink water but not a whole lot - 15 glasses grabe! but if it's gonna make me look that younger im all in!

Drinking a lot of water has helped with my migraine (so did not drinking chocolates!) and chapped lips. Keep a refillable bottle of water with you lagi. I always have one whenever I go out esp. when I'm driving. It helps calm me down when traffic is crazy.Mommy Roxihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15993191033528247522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-42109367847138529632013-11-04T20:35:33.171+08:002013-11-04T20:35:33.171+08:00this is actually interesting. i used to think 2 li...this is actually interesting. i used to think 2 liters is enough. now thinking about 3 liters, parang nabubusog na ko. haha. i'll definitely try it. i think the best way to do this is to bring a water jug all the time, and also, don;t drink softdrinks/juice with meals, just water na lang. i've been sticking to water even when my husband and i go out, kasi i always think of the sugar in colas and juices. i'll probably increase my intake gradually, so let's see in four weeks. hahaAyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10859167706927744055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-71846276445436315162013-11-04T17:56:17.203+08:002013-11-04T17:56:17.203+08:00here's what i do: I have a 1L water bottle bes...here's what i do: I have a 1L water bottle beside my desk. My target: 1L of pure water (tea/coffee along side it) till lunch time and 1L or more till 6pm before leaving work. After that, at home, I drink lots of water before and after my dinner :) You'll get used to it in no time.ivy_league05https://www.blogger.com/profile/03220729860504228379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-36517219514782184432013-11-04T17:02:03.191+08:002013-11-04T17:02:03.191+08:00Waaah I wanna do this too!Waaah I wanna do this too!Animetrichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01074899258212643697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-5812504931226019332013-11-04T15:52:21.526+08:002013-11-04T15:52:21.526+08:00very interesting post! count me in!

My facial skin is kinda wrinkled, i have 5 kilos of eye bags, and uneven skin. Drinking 15 glasses of water sounds like a good plan. I will try this one. Hoping for improvement. :)nelabratinellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05030082017795105555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-64037674637977696342013-11-04T12:07:20.546+08:002013-11-04T12:07:20.546+08:00Hi Frances!

Swerte ako ksi mahilig ako uminom ng tubig pero meron akng friend na tinuroan ko paano inumin ang 3 liters a day and so far gusto na nya ang tubig. Ang ginawa ko sa kanya binigyan ko sya ng bottle na 1 liter tapos ni re-remind ko sya every 5 mins to take a sip and swirl it in d mouth pra ma feel ang water. Huwag dapat marami muna ksi mabubusog ka kaagad. Hindi nya na malayan na naubos na pala ang 1 liter in just 4 hrs i think. Kailangan mo lang talaga ng partner na matiyaga na magremind for 1 week pra mkasanayan mo ang lasa ng tubig. Sana nkatulong ako. Goodluck! Kaya mo yan!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10141568858067535809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-35277938439593479732013-11-04T11:07:02.250+08:002013-11-04T11:07:02.250+08:00I did the "drink more water" thingy earl...I did the "drink more water" thingy earlier this year. But I stick to the recommended 2liters of water a day. 3 litets pala dapat!! Like you I also can't gulp down 3glasses of water dati. But because of health reasons I made a pact with myself to stay hydrated. The first I thing I did was buy a cute water bottle. Yung may nakalagay na measurement to keep track of how much water I'm consuming already. And I bring it with me all the time. I realize that its easier to stick to the drinking water thingy if you always have it available. :) Now out of habit na ang pag inom ko everywhere. Pero push natin yang 3liters. Nakakaganda pala!!!ReigningStillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04525505721110170379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-50099008539453144492013-11-04T10:57:10.048+08:002013-11-04T10:57:10.048+08:00Hi, Frances!

Every time we drink a glass of water, we'd write a tick mark beside our names. We're a family of eight so it got really competitive - we averaged around 12 to 15 glasses a day! This would really help you especially when your kids are a little older. At work, I bring a large tumbler - I think this is around 4 glasses. So no excuse not to drink water. Hope this helps! :)Rona A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16465305546073404283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-75104954297833160202013-11-04T09:57:04.295+08:002013-11-04T09:57:04.295+08:00that's an exciting challenge.
