Actually that seriously didn't frustrate me at all really. I was more confused than anything, lol.

Personally, I just kept a big glass with me. I didn't remember all month. But I've also been sick so to get that mucus out, you gotta drink a lot of water.

Good, easy work, easy money. Honestly, I feel like I am not working, that easy.

Two goals for you this month, then eh?

They keep getting stick near the head. I have to wait until I'm about to explode so I can blast them out.

I love being somewhere that "TMI" is rarely, if ever, used

I did pretty great with my water consumption this month. The easiest way I found to remind myself to drink was to have a small 8 ounce glass of water by me at all times during the day. Just having it close at hand encouraged me to drink more. As soon as it was empty, I'd go and refill it. This helped a ton.

After the last meeting I did good for like the first two weeks then fell of the wagon. I added a splash of juice to my big water jug. I found that it worked better than using a smaller one and having to refill it.

Yeah, having it right by you certainly makes the most sense. I need to do that.

It really is something I need to do better at! I am prone to sinus infections, and I find that if I properly hydrate, I'm less likely to get them. *shrug*

Also a good strategy. It's really whatever works for the individual.

Going to see how friendly it is on the budget next time I need oil thanks for the info.

Something else the two of us have in common. Have you ever tried to get on Loratidine as well as drinking more water? It's made a world of difference for me.

Yeah, I just have to throw one of the tiny tupperware lids on top of my glass so the cats don't drink from it, and keep a close eye on it so they don't knock the glass down and break it. This has happened more than once. -_-

I think, with Sam's permission, that I'm going to make another thread for random health-related questions that we can check back and post in. Something that isn't just about diet and exercise.

@Trishibear had a question about smoking cessation and that is as important as eating right and living healthy.

Thoughts?

I'm almost done with my first bottle of water of the night. I'll probably get up to get some more in a bit

Thanks. Honestly, what BBWTT is saying is true. I truly believe the stones are a result of not drinking enough water. It feels like passing a shard of glass - so take that as a warning to all of you! *uses a forboding voice*

The flavor is strong, so use it sparingly. I've had a small bottle for over 6 months and I make stir-fry about once a week.

I was on a nasal steroid, but I just kind of stopped taking it. I'm about as bad at taking meds as I am at hydrating!
