So, out of curiosity, I started tracking how much water I drink during a day. The average person is supposed to drink 8 cups a day. I just started keeping track of how much I drink, and turns out, I was only drinking about ONE CUP A DAY. I would get a sip from the drinking fountain when I was thirsty, but that was all. I might have one cup of milk, or a 32 oz cup of soda every now and then, but that is no substitute for water. You do get some water from the food that you eat during the day, but that doesn't make up for pure liquid either.
So, I figured that you need to be drinking water constantly throughout the day. That means you have to drink even when you're not thirsty. Now that I've been drinking a minimum of 8 cups of water per day, I feel much better. And not only do I feel better, I have less of an apetite as well. I had to eat more to get the water I needed since I wasn't drinking it, but now that I'm drinking it, my body doesn't need as much food. How do you like them apples?
