Still going down slow and steady😁. Although I've noticed I'm struggling with my water intake yet again which triggers my cravings (that whole thirst masquerading as hunger thing). Here's the problem; I work retail and am always fliting from place to place. I walk in, drop my stuff in the office, do as little paperwork as possible, then head out to help on the floor. I average 18000 steps in a workday if that tells you how much I move. Do any of you have some advice to get more water in?

I worked retail for many many years. I know what it’s like to be on the floor and running around. I have no memory of how I drank water at all, yet I do remember drinking coffee galore.😋 ☕️
Have a wonderful Wednesday Acd36!🌺

Do you have an activity tracker on that allows customized reminders you could set one up to remind you to drink. Another idea would be to carry your water with you. Not sure if you have a strict dress code but, there are some water bladders that you can wear. The more you drink the less water you're carrying around.

“Slow and steady wins the race”! I had the same problem...ate too much sodium rich foods and drank tons of water. Sodium causes your body to retain water. To reduce water gain/bloat, reduce sodium and maintain water

It helps me to have a physical or visual cue. For example, every time you go to a certain section of the store, you take a big drink (you can keep a water bottle somewhere inconspicuous) or every time a coworker says a certain thing (drinking games aren't just for alcohol) or even just drink an allotted amount on each break. For me it's all about making it fun or interesting until it turns into habit. Good luck!
