Ok, you’ve heard it a thousand times before: “Water covers two thirds of the Earth’s surface”. “Our bodies are made up of 70% water”. Right? If water is all around us, how come it’s easier to drink a soda at lunch than to have a glass of water? Did you know, however, that by drinking more water you can actually boost your metabolism and lose more weight? “Researchers in Germany report that water consumption increases the rate at which people burn calories. The impact is modest and the findings are preliminary, but the researchers say their study could have important implications for weight-control programs.” (source: WebMD)

How much water should you drink?

Most diets will say that you should drink at least 8 eight-once glasses of water per day. Although that may sound like a lot, it’s really easy to drink all of that water. Here are three tips to ensure ample water intake:

• Get a Water Bottle
  Water bottles are re-useable, easy to clean, and big! When you have a water bottle, you’ll be more apt to use it and keep yourself hydrated throughout the day. A huge bottle is not necessarily the best kind to get – I personally use a 16-once bottle and sometimes even a 24-oncer!

• Keep the Bottle by Your Desk
  When you keep your bottle by your desk, you’ll see it often and your brain will often queue you to drink the water and keep it filled. Another benefit of having a bottle by your desk is that you’ll have to go to the bathroom more often which will make you get up, stretch, and walk more throughout the day.

• Refill Whenever you Get Up
  Now that you have a bottle and keep it by your desk, make sure to keep it full! Whenever you get up to pick up a print job, go fill your bottle. Whenever you go to the copy room, fill your bottle. Whenever you go chit chat with the cubicle next door, go fill your bottle!

By the end of the workday, you’ll have drunk a lot of water! I suggest not drinking anything BUT water throughout the day. Water is healthy, has no chemicals and has no calories! By drinking lots of water throughout the day, you will boost your metabolism and also make sure that your body is getting enough hydration to keep running properly.
