How To Keep Up Your Water Drinking Habit.

by Stephanie

How To Keep Up Your Water Drinking Habit.

Do you have a hard time keeping up a solid water drinking habit like I do? It’s a struggle I know!

Some people don’t like the taste. Some like it but forget to drink it.

I personally really like drinking water but I always seem to forget until the end of the day and you don’t want to be drinking it all at the end of the day or you’ll be getting up at night! Believe me, I’ve been there.

I have a few tips I’ve found helpful to keep up my water drinking habit:

💦Drink a full jar/glass before coffee

I always have one full 1 litre jar of water first thing in the morning. If this seems like too much, just start with a small glass of water to get you going.

💦Get a fun glass

I’m all for stainless water bottles, but they don’t inspire me to drink water all day. 

Find a fun glass or jar that makes you want to drink water. I love this mason jar (pictured) that my sister gave me (it was full of apple sauce originally). Pasta jars and pickle jars also work well. I like having a bigger jar over a smaller one because it helps me to keep track of the water I’m drinking. My personal goal is to have 3 litres a day so I drink 3 jars that hits my goal.

💦Flavour water with natural ingredients

Forget those weird squeezy pouch things. They’re full of fake ingredients that our bodies don’t particularly love. Try lemon, lime, raspberries, or strawberries. Try adding a bit of real juice (not from concentrate!) to amp up the flavour.

💦Add a timer to your phone

It might be annoying if it dings, but it’ll remind you to drink up!

💦Keep a full glass with you at your desk

I tend to drink more when I’m at my desk working so make sure your glass is always full ready to sip!

Christmas cookies comin’ up! I make these Almond Christmas cookies comin’ up! I make these Almond Raspberry Thumbprint cookies from @thatcleanlife because they delish and easy! I’m going to have to hide them before the kids get home and hubby gets off his call. Otherwise they’ll be gonzo!
Every season change, I find myself saying ‘Oh, t Every season change, I find myself saying ‘Oh, this is why we moved here.’ It’s so beautiful. (We’ll see if I still feel this way in March. 😂).
I made granola today! I actually don’t make it I made granola today!

I actually don’t make it that much if at all. I never buy it. I got tired of going to the store, looking at ingredients and not buying anything. 

Granola is sooooo easy to make and you can control all of the ingredients!

I adapted this recipe from @onceuponachef.
