I have found that filling up two 24 oz. canning jars (we use them for glasses) and leaving them either in the fridge or on the counter (I like cool water, not cold) will remind me to drink them. I try to drink the first before noon and the second before 4 so I don't have to wake up as much in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. I always have a smaller glass with dinner and then a little more before bed. But, I've found that if I see all that I have to drink all at once it helps to accomplish the goal. Then I don't have to remember all day how many glasses I've had.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10012600638180147495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-720122887391988458.post-84594228338983730602007-11-19T08:36:00.000-06:002007-11-19T08:36:00.000-06:00You know, every day as part of our school routine,...You know, every day as part of our school routine, Mom made us do a half hour to an hour of exercise. While at the time I didn't like it at all, now I look back and see what a good thing it was. We did things like jumping jacks, sit ups, stretches (first), push ups, and jump rope inside. Soon, hopefully, you will be able to go ice skating and sledding and skiing!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16919718971492296117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-720122887391988458.post-62876094745274200112007-11-18T19:24:00.000-06:002007-11-18T19:24:00.000-06:00Hop Scotch!!!

That wouldn't be a problem for you though with your fridge thing.<BR/><BR/>One idea would be to set a timer for an hour and drink each time it goes off. Another idea that comes to mind is getting in the mindset that certain activities warrant a drink of water. For instance, just before nap time or just before a certain school subject or just before anything else you do on a regular basis.<BR/><BR/>One thing I wonder about though, we're "supposed" to drink 8 glasses a day, but my problem is that I can chug down nearly a quart at a time about eight times a day. I'm wondering if that has stretched my stomach vs. drinking many, many smaller (sips) several times a day.<BR/><BR/>Just some thoughts...<BR/>Shelly up northAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
