Let's talk about water.

 WATER! Water water water! It's good for you. I hate drinking it but I need to, as I'm always dehydrated. Plus it helps with a million other things besides preventing headaches. Which is pretty helpful for me The headache queen. 

If you're like me, you struggle with constantly drinking water. So I have to get creative with finding ways to consume it. You can flavor your water with fruit, drink fresh juice or... You can eat it! Here is a nice little picture that shows you some water rich foods to help with hydration. 

Something I've decided to try

I've been trying something new for the past few days. I call it "think before you snack". Recently I've decided I can't cut out junk completely. After all, I work at a Fro Yo place. I graze at the toppings constantly; I also lack major self control when it comes to food. So I'm trying something new. I am trying to limit myself to 2 junkish foods a day. Take today for example. I had some BBQ chips for lunch and a small bowl of yogurt at work. 

Some people may be able to cut out junk food completely. I envy you and your self control. 

I found this article that I think really helps out in the eating "empty calories" department. It's worth a read. Basically what it says is you can some empty calories a day, but not a lot. And if you exercise more, you can eat more junk and it won't matter. Hurrah for exercise!
