Battle of the Week . . .


Or should I say for the past two and a half weeks. . . my weight has been bouncing like a yo-yo 2 pounds up and down. I know a big part of my problem is that I have not been drinking enough water.

Having never been a big water drinker, I'm really having to force myself to drink more water. Even purchased a "bubba keg" to help me in drinking more water. It helps in keeping it cold like I prefer. But still a chore.

I purchased some flavored water thinking that would help, but it tasted overly sweet to me. When I mentioned this to my hubby he reminded me about something that I did years ago, and what they do at one of the Thai Restraunts that we frequent. That's adding fruit to the water and chilling.

One receipe that I used to make all the time, was to slice cucumbers and lemons and put them in a picture of water and refill as needed. Switching out the cucumbers and lemons every few days.

This weekend I tried chilling water with lemons, lime and orange slices in it, that helped some.

It's a battle, one that I am determined to win. But I'm on a mission to determine how other people over come the battle of "Not Drinking Enough Water".
