Let’s chat water!!
It’s one of the best things you can do for your health.
Did you know that water is one of the most important nutrients your body needs? Without it, you’ll only survive about 3 days.
A great rule of thumb is that you should be drinking half of your body weight in ounces of water each day. So if you weigh 160 lbs, you’ll need 80 oz of water per day.

Over the weekend, I attended a wellness course and even though I already drink a ton of water each day, I really learned how important it is to start your day with water!
So, I’m launching off a NOVEMBER WATER CHALLENGE!
Each morning, you’ll consume 20 oz of filtered water, plain/unflavored, and room temperature before drinking anything else! Yup, no more starting your day with coffee!
This is one of the easiest and cheapest things you can do for your health!
When you do this, you’ll be improving the function of joints, ligaments, and muscles since they’re dehydrated from sleeping!
Why can’t you flavor the water? Because your digestive system will be triggered and will begin to use it for digestion. And we want to hydrate the rest of our body first!!
I have included two graphics for you to use to keep track of your daily water! One is dated, one is not. Screenshot them and check off each day you complete!!
To learn more about the importance of starting your day with water, listen to this video here.
Save one of the graphics above, and join me in starting your day with 20 oz of water each morning! Be sure to tag me on Instagram when you share your challenge!
