a water question
| Wed, 04-27-2005 - 5:17am |
Hi ladies,
I know we should have at least 64oz of water a day and i am trying to do that. My question is: does it have to be distributed through the day? cuz i sort of "clutter" drinking the water at certain times and most of the day i go "dry". Just wondering if i am doing the right thing. Thanks

Well, it's probably better to keep hydrated throughout the day, but if you are drinking most of your water when you are most active, then it's probably not too much of a problem. I drink around 150 oz of water a day, but most of it is while I am at work, which is when I am most active. When I'm sitting at home doing nothing, I usually don't drink a whole lot. I do try to drink extra before and after I exercise to make sure I don't get dehydrated from that. All in all, if you listen to your body and you aren't getting overly thirsty then you are probably fine. One thing to keep in mind, though, is that if you do get dehydrated, it usually makes you think you are hungry, so if you notice that you feel hungrier when you aren't drinking a lot of water, you might want to try to up your water intake.

Well, for me, it's easier because I sit at a desk all day and just sip, sip, sip.
