Default Red Team Week #3 Challenge - Water Intake
Well we've done a few exercise challenges now, so let's do a water challenge this week to change it up.

Everywhere I research on the web it says you should drink between 50-75% of your body weight in ounces of water per day. 50% being a less active person and 75% being very active.

Let's shoot for 50% this week and see how it goes. I swear it works!

I'm in!

FYI:

I have a bad knee and was directed to the following website about water: http://www.watercure.com/faq.html. This link takes you to the FAQ's page where the following paragraph can be found.

*It is very important you balance your sodium intake with your water consumption. Take 1/4 teaspoon of salt per quart of water - every 4-5 glasses of water. Be sure to get sea salt. The best is Celtic sea salt or Himalayan sea salt, both of which are readily available at any health food store.

Monday - 110/110
Tuesday - 110/110
Wednesday - 110/110
Thursday - 0/110
Friday - 0/110
Saturday 0/110
Sunday 0/110
