That's Fit

As I sit here writing, I am sipping from a glass of water. Why? I'm thirsty! But beyond that, there are so many good reasons to drink enough water each day.

1. Drinking water helps keep your body from retaining it. This is good for our health, but let's face it -- it helps our appearance too. Who wants to look puffy?

2. Water in your stomach means less room for overeating. I know this is my husband's favorite trick. When he gets the munchies at work, but is not truly hungry, he'll have a glass of water instead. It suppresses the urge for the munchies and gives him all the great benefits of water to boot.
3. A glass of warm water first thing in the morning aids your digestion and gets things moving. Do I need to elaborate on this one, or do you all get it?

4. Water intake promotes beautiful skin. Why? Because water purifies the body and less toxins in the body mean less toxins to cause skin problems.

5. Drinking water can prevent or eliminate headaches. I am prone to pesky migraines at certain times in my cycle, but only if I haven't had enough water to drink that day. It is worth it to me to drink my water.

Are there more than five? You bet! I chose my favorites, but you may have other reasons for drinking water. So let's hear them!
