I was gonna call this the “Self Care” challenge…but what’s the fun in that?
Long story short: Although we do an excellent job of taking care of others, many times we forget to take care of ourselves! And taking care of yourself is MORE than just eating right and exercising. So this challenge will lead you through simple yet powerful ways of…[Read more]

(TMI) Poll: About how many times/how frequently are you visiting the restroom since this challenge began?
Theoretically that should slow down a bit as your body gets consistently hydrated so I’ll keep asking as we go through this month!
Besides that, you all know the drill. Report back!

Yay for plea deals!
I went for my annual women’s exam today. Pretty uneventful although I saw a new doc so had to go through my whole history and explain the cancer and yadda. But I like this doctor. I felt like she took her time, listened to me, and answered my questions well, so that’s encouraging.
Not sure I shared this but I am trying to…[Read more]

I’ve got 57 ounces in so far. I’ve peed a LOT today. (But at least it was the correct color!)

I don’t know what to wish for in this jury situation but…whatever is the best outcome, I hope that’s what happens!
So yesterday I enacted stage 2 of my car rehabilitation effort. I cleaned out underneath ALL the seats and vacuumed really well. The carpet is filthy but I am going to go wash the mats and for now that will have to be good enough.…[Read more]

Good morning! Yesterday was sort of a bust for me but today is a new day!
Since we’ve been talking a lot about our increased visits to the bathroom, I thought I’d share this color chart that tells you how hydrated your body is based on the color of your pee. I think we all should be in the lighter categories but just in case…
And with that…[Read more] -

So I didn’t make it yesterday either. Sigh.
No real reason why. I just…didn’t.
Today’s goal is to be more mindful of my intake.

Omigosh, me too! If I have 16.9 oz before breakfast, I can usually get in the rest fairly easily. What happens any other time is I don’t even think about water until…um…bedtime… lol

Nikki Massie replied to the topic HI! I'm new! in the forum Introduce Yourself! 7 years, 5 months ago
Welcome!
I’m glad you found us. I believe most of our current members are at least a year or two out from surgery, so you’ll find some good perspective here. We are a new community and growing (so that means that we still have a relatively small amount of members) and so I think that allows for folks to get to know each other really well, which…[Read more]

Monday!
Whether it’s manic or mundane, make sure you have your water goals all set up!
If you’re going for the 72 oz. a day, report back where you land.
If you’re doing the step up approach, I’d love to know your plan for each day this week.
We can do this! And after we do this…we will invest in Charmin stock together! 😉

Back to life…post-graduation mom lol.
Today is work for my usual hours. At lunch I need to go to the post office and that will give me some nice steps. After work, I’m continuing my “clean my personal environment” mission by completely vacuuming out my car (I’m a little scared of what I will find under the driver and front passenger seats but…[Read more]
