Water...

Water is your body's principal chemical component, making up, on average, 60 percent of your body weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues. Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. Even mild dehydration can drain your energy and make you tired.

Well this week I am making an effort to increase my water intake...I usually have something to drink sitting at my desk...most of the time is it water...however I seldom drink the "recommended daily amount" - eight - 8 oz glasses of fluids. This week I'm making sure before I leave to go home each day I have had that much water.

Don't get me wrong I'm like Cliff Huxtable (The Cosby Show)..."I want something with bubbles"...but I'm making sure that I get PLENTY of water this week. I think I feel better drinking that much water but I'll keep you posted.
