The importance of drinking water and weight loss is huge and there are so many benefits to drinking water. Water helps burn fat and may stimulate your metabolism. I am guilty for not being the best water drinker. It’s my love of sweet tea and ginger beer that clouds my judgement. I was that person that could go through the day not drinking water at all. This all changed when I received a meal plan from my personal trainer that required that I drink “one gallon” of water daily. How crazy is that, I thought?

I struggled for months trying to get in a half gallon and I was tired of running to the bathroom which requires you to be strategic if you are out running errands. The first day I met my one gallon goal, I saw a difference in my muscles and even felt better. I still struggle to meet my water goal so i take one day at a time. The days I do meet my water goal are the days I use my time marked water bottle. I’ve seen the time marked water bottles, but never thought about purchasing one even after several recommendations. I am so thankful that a friend just purchased one for me. The water bottle is the best!
