How to Drink More Water?


Incredible as it may seem, water is quite possibly the single most important catalyst in losing weight and keeping it off. But drinking eight glasses of water may be a big task especially for one who hardly drinks three glasses of water daily. Well, not to worry here are some easy tricks to increase your daily water intake.

Firstly, take baby steps i.e, don't expect to go from zero glasses of water to the full 8 glasses overnight. Start with one glass of water in the morning and one glass of water at night, and build your way up from there. Make it a morning ritual, have it in the form of fresh lime water, even coconut water can add to your daily water intake. Drink when you have a munchie attack like sometimes our hunger is thirst masquerading as fake hunger. Drinking a cup or two of water will make you feel "full." Always have a full glass of water near you when you are working. It will give you something to mindlessly sip on when you are brainstorming or need something to do with your hands. Do it like it's hot. If you're in the mood for a hot drink, drink heated water. Sometimes we just want the psychological pleasure that comes with having a hot mug cupped in our hands than the actual drink itself. Last but not the least is think of how pretty you'll look as having healthy, glowing skin is often correlated to drinking a lot of water... So what say ready to increase your daily water intake:-)
