WHY YOU SHOULD DRINK A SHITLOAD OF WATER DAILY Your brain is your biggest liquid asset. It is composed of more than 85 percent water. Little wonder then that if you are dehydrated, your thinking ability drops dramatically, as does the performance of your whole body. ● Water is 2nd only to oxygen in survival. A body can live for minutes without oxygen, for a few days without water, and several weeks without food. ● The human body is 60% water, blood is 90% water, muscles are 75% water, and bone is 25% water. Water is one of the main structures of the body. Drain your body of water you’ll be left with a few pounds of chemicals that are worth about $5 you guys! ●Your brain is 1/50 of your total body weight, but it receives 20% of the blood circulation, so 1/5 of your body’s water requirements come from your brain. ●Water balances and regulates almost every other system in the body — temperature regulation, digestion, and waste excretion. You cannot eliminate toxins from your body with insufficient water. ●Most headaches and feelings of fatigue are caused by dehydration. ●You lose about 10 cups of fluid each day in sweat, urine, and bowel movements. Even the air you exhale contains vital water vapor. ●If you wait until you are thirsty to drink, you are already dehydrated. Unlike hunger, thirst is a bad sign. ●Drinks that contain caffeine (colas and coffee) are diuretics, which means they lessen the body’s ability to absorb and retain water — they rob the body of water. ●It is the most time efficient way of improving your mood and overall performance. It takes seconds to drink a glass of water, but the benefits last for hours. ●Combined with a healthy lifestyle, drinking water increases weight loss.

So I haven't been posting a lot but I kind of took a hiatus from most of my social networks (best decision ever!) But I haven't stopped working towards my goals! Picture on the left was February of 2015 (196lbs) and the right was this morning (I honestly don't know how much I weigh right now). There were so many times I ate waaaaayy too much, drank too much, and skipped workouts during this time period. But I never gave up. It's proof that bad days don't have to be the end of your journey as long as you get back up again. And you have to get back up after falling 10 times, 20 times, hell 100 times! It came off slow but I have established so many healthy habits, and I never let myself feel deprived. I'm stronger, healthier and i feel more and more comfortable in my skin every day. I'm so proud of myself and I can't wait to see my progress by the end of summer!

Confidence goals!

Nonscalevictory

With tons of pictures being taken during festivities yesterday, there was only one I didn’t like. (And it was a really bad angle lol).

Nothing like being confident in your own body. I may have a long way to to but I have come a long way as well!
