Water...
You know, I have to admit that water really has to be the miracle "drug".
I have increased my water intake from 0 to at least 1 liter plus a couple of 8 ounces glasses from the cooler at work per day and the difference I feel in my body is REALLY amazing. I kid you people not, I've lost about 50lbs since Christmas (yeah it was nasty), I've eliminated my "need" for an afternoon nap because I can now sleep longer than 5 hours in a row, have virtually eliminated coffee and energy drinks from my diet because I actually PREFER water now (except with meals), and I literally feel "high" most of the day...and I "think" it's because I'm working up a good sweat and my body actually has more than enough water to deal with the situation whereas before, the longer I worked, the worse I felt...and don't even get me started on what it's done for my overall appearance from a physical standpoint as well as how I feel mentally throughout the day. I REALLY hate to say it, because it took me 36 years to get here, but I've really become fascinated with water and the human body over the last few months. |

Bruce Lee
Bruce Lee had an great quote about water.
Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless--like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can *flow* or it can *crash*! Be water, my friend. -- Bruce Lee |

Drinking a healthy amount of water a day, really is quite a "trip".
I agree completely with what ol' Brain has said. Two summers ago.. I started drinking a whole bunch of water and riding a bicycle about 6 miles a day. at the same time I was working on building the deck around my swimming pool.. In the heat of summer.. and I was much more able to DEAL with the heat. I lost a quick freakin' 20lbs. could kick myself for having stopped that little experiment !!! |

I had a kidney stone a couple of years back. As the summer months approach us, it is important to drink plenty of water especially this time of year, unless you like pain.... Also lay off the carbonated bevs which turns your body into kalkwasser reactor!
I also like juices. Pomegranate/cherry blend is good, especially for men IMHO. |

And in actuality, Anime, you may "suffer" from the same problem I did/do. Even now it's hard for me to walk into a store and buy a bottle of water instead of a coke....and even though I've (and probably you too) heard all our lives about the benefits of good hydration, I swear I would/could not have believed it without having lived it. Even now, I wonder if I've got some kind of brain tumor and THAT'S why I feel better rather than merely drinking water. 2-1 liter bottles a day and you've exceeded your "8 glasses a day" by about 4 ounces, but I will testify that even 3/4 of the recommended "dosage", if you will, produces amazing results in the way you will feel and I can only assume that is a direct result of the health benefits. |

Living in his lie ! If I am on your ignore list boy why do you reply to my post ?
You do time to time make good post but your so tainted by all the other post that I find it hard to believe anything you say. You might want to get that brain tumor check out it might be causing your bipolarity.

So when you wrote "...and that's the deal, by the time you feel thirsty, you're already suffering from dehydration" you actually meant "...and that's the deal, by the time you feel thirsty, you're probably not suffering from dehydration?"

They say wars will be fought over it in the future...good a reason as any to drink plenty of it now.

No, What I said in my very next post, specifically to clarify the statement you were questioning was: Quote:
Like I said, you're just trying to start an argument and you've failed, but I'm not quite as easy of a prey to catch. Better luck next time. |
