Water is the one of the most important necessities of life. Without it we would perish in a week depending on the climate. I created a drinking water checklist because I’m one of those people that forget to drink water.
I can literally go a day without drinking water. However, that will lead to major illnesses down the line. In fact, I had my gallbladder removed and one of the reasons was that my body lacked the water intake it needed.
I’ve come across apps that were supposed to help remind me when to drink but it never really worked. Mostly, it would go off and I would be in the middle of something and it would just slip my mind usually realizing that I hadn’t drank all day. My friends marvel that I can go without a drink while eating. I’ve become so used to it but I know that it’s unhealthy and I need to change my ways.
I needed a reminder, something I could see to remind me. I created my own drinking water checklist which let’s me tick off the number of glasses of water I’ve drunk each day. If mid way through the day I see that I’ve only ticked 2 circles then I know I need to catch up and drink at least every hour after that.
If you’re in the same boat as me then you are very much welcome to use these checklists. If you will be sharing it please link to this post.
Cool apps, I need a reminder to drink water too, thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks for stopping by Shasheta!
A very simple but good idea! I’m the same way, I can go all day without even realizing I haven’t drank any water. I just don’t think about it if I don’t feel thirsty.
But I am pregnant, I have been trying really hard to drink lots of water. I can always tell the days where I don’t drink enough; it really affects me now that I’m drinking for two. I think I print this out and put it on my fridge; Thanks!
Oh also; found your blog from the Bloggers Digest! Following you on G+ and Facebook
Thanks so much for the follow Angela! It’s really important you drink water and the required minimum of 8 glasses a day. Glad my checklist can help you!
Wow need ko din ng ganyan. Lalo na at breastfeeding mom ako need uminom ng maraming tubig.
