[toxicteen]

[Kelly]

Your funny. That's ok....just get back on and resume with the 8 a day....we all have our little slips. You can do it!

 

[Kelly]

Not a problem...WELCOME ABOARD!

 

[Charmosa]

Reporting in.

I've been doing pretty good. I admit I havent reached my goal every single day but this is still a huge change for me. Started with 0 intake.

I am expecting my period in a couple of days so you can imagine my skin is not in it's best condition. But I am satisfied with the overall result.

I think that my body is already used to all the water it gets and I definitely wont stop drinking it when the challenge is over.

YAY everyones still going!! Keep it going people!!!

I kinda slipped a bit because I was ill for a few days and couldn't shove more than 3 glasses but....I tried. But now I'm back on track!!

Is it okay for me to join now?

I drank nine glasses of water so far today, and I feel great! Not sure if it's psychological or the actual water, but I feel really healthy and energised. Anyone else noticing this?

 

[Kelly]

Absolutely! Welcome aboard. Most people noticed results in about 3 days, some longer, depending on the individual. You will notice the bathroom trips will start to slow down about 2-3 weeks into this, your body will adjust. I know, 2-3 weeks - YIKES! But seriously, it's for the better of your overall health.

I'm glad you decided to take the challenge.

I forgot about this thread. Everytime I see it I am like "why don't I get with it??"

I really need to join this challenge and actually do it.

 

[PopModePrincess]

I know I've neglected this thread, but there has been so much going on in my life as of late and I have been slacking off pretty badly. I'm getting back on track. Sorry Kelly, for dropping out.

 

[Kelly]

We would welcome your joining:clap

 

[Kelly]

I hope your life settles down a bit. I know I've been busy too! So much to do around home with the kids and everything else, that I don't know which end is up. I'm really in the dazed and confused category lately.

Thanks for the update and I'm glad to hear from you and know you will start back up where you left off.:icon_chee

Arghh....I wish I had found this site much earlier...I just joined this forum yesterday, and read about this thread today. This is like the perfect challenge for me right now...because I hardly drink one glass of water a day...I know its really bad, but somehow I neglect drinking enough water.

I have had a lot of problems due to lack of sufficient water in my body - acne!! and dry skin!! and bladder infection!!! my doctor even said that I have to drink enough water if I don't want stones in my kidney.

I know that valentine's day is in about a week...but I am still going to join this challenge anyway...and hopefully I can keep it going forever!

 

[Kelly]

I definitely know all about the kidney stones and you don't want them....OUCH! (speaking from experience, 3 different times). I used to NEVER drink water).

I too hope you keep this up forever, your body will thank you! You should start to notice a difference in about 3 days, sometimes longer. And the bathroom trips will slow down, honest:icon_bigg .

Glad to have you aboard!

I read this whole thread straight through and really enjoyed it. I am going to start this challenge myself. I love drinking herbal tea's for water but i know i don't drink enough! Cheers!

 

[Kelly]

Wow I can't believe you read the whole thread.....:icon_bigg . I'm glad you decided to start the challenge! I love green tea or white tea sometimes and sometimes other herbal teas. Although with this challenge, I personally didn't include any other beverage as water....most of us counted our water only consumption (which doesn't mean I didn't drink anything else, I sure did....my tea or coffee along with the 8 a day).

 

[Kelly]

So this challenge has less than a week left....I believe we said Valentines Day was our end, right?

So just a reminder to get ready to take the after pictures and we all would love to see the before and after pictures....side by side if possible (to see if we can notice any changes).

 

[livlegacy629]

aww i dont want it to end! I am afraid that if we stop the challenge then i will stop too :icon_eek:

anyways I have been doing pretty good, meeting my goals and everything. Yesterday before i took my makeup off i looked in the mirror and i noticed my skin was glowing :icon_chee My acne is still acting up (only on one side of my face though) and its really annoying. oh well....:icon_roll

 

[JJ84]

Im so gutted that this ends on the 14th cos its just a few days before my 'monthly visit' lol, so my skin wont be looking as nice /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> oh well!

 

[PopModePrincess]

Reporting in since I've been miserably AWOL for a while!

Today I vow to get back on track. Can you all believe I've gotten down to one glass a day? My skin is still doing ok, but physically, I don't feel as energetic as I used to. I also feel heavier. I'm PMSing right now and I feel a decided difference between how I felt last cycle (great!) and this one (really irritable, bloated, depressed, etc). I'm on my 4th bottle so far.

 

[Jinjer]

ok....don't hate me but I drink about 15 glasses a day...or more....I LOVE water!!!!!!!

But my acne!!!!!! geeeeeez the water seems to net be helping
