Water is so important for weight loss and general health. People always tell you to drink more water- but how much is enough? The old 8 glasses a day is kind of vague, and honestly doesn't apply to all body types. The general rule of thumb I go by is half of my body weight in ounces. So right now I weight 150ish. I need to drink 75oz of water a day. That sounds like a lot doesn't it? Well, I add lemon and lime to my water, and drink at least 6 big gulps out of my water bottle every so often. I usually hit my goal too :) One thing I do not add though? Chemical sweeteners to make it taste like juice. No Mio or Crystal Light for this girl! As a girl who had some serious kidney problems in college- I cannot even begin to tell you how important getting enough water is. Trust me! It is good for your whole body AND your weightloss goals.
