31-Day Water Challenge!

I’m sure we all know the benefits water has for our bodies and considering we’re approximately 75% water are we drinking enough? So for the month of July I want you to join me in the Water Challenge. This challenge was inspired by an article I read in the paper about the visible changes drinking water has on your skin and I know proper hydration is critical to pretty much everything in your body.

Here are some tips on how to consume enough water for your body:

  • When you wake up drink 1- 2 glasses of water

I personally love squeezing half a lemon into my hot cup of water with 1tsp of honey to start the day. Using lemon will kick start your body and remove toxins in your body.

  • Drink at least 30mins – 1 hr before you eat.
  • Carry a water bottle with you everyday and drink throughout the day.
  • Drink before you are thirsty (thirst is one of the last signs of dehydration)
  • To make sure you’re drinking sufficient water for your body, here’s a calculation I use:

 ½ of my body weight in ounces

for example “if” I weighed 121 pounds I will then drink 60.5 ounces of water which is approx. 1.7 litres

Drinking enough water is a key element for maintaining your health and general well-being. Increasing your daily intake of water helps keep your skin look vibrant and younger, aids digestion, improves your concentration and helps to remove toxins from your body.
