More Water

My new goal is to drink more water. I need to get up to about 5 gallons per day. I am currently on gallon one. lol.

I have drank up to 3 gallons of water a day at one point in time. I slacked off and now I'm ready to pick up the slack. Or, wipe the slate clean and just start brand new.

I have my favorite orange cup that I am using and that is helpful in keeping me sipping. The part that isn't my friend is how it causes frequent "visits"....but in the past I have found those to slack off as my body gets used to the increase in water intake. So, I will update on my progress here later on.

Gripe O' Da Day: STILL SORE!!!!

I keep going, every morning. I get up and I go. However, I am still very sore. I think that I am missing some type of mineral or supplement. I am going to seek out some type of way to get into a hot tub. I REALLY need to soak. I'm talking like five 15 minute sessions of soaking. Its not in my joints, thankfully! Its my tiny muscles, they are screaming. (helppppp helppppp helppppp, she won't stop moving) That was the tiny muscles screaming by the way.

I have also begun to realize that I have a distorted image of what my body actually looks like. I'm not sure how to describe it other than this way: I can tell my clothes are fitting differently in such a short time and I can tell I'm more mobile and I can feel the difference in my range of movement. However, when I look at myself I feel like I am getting fatter and fatter. My stomach looks bigger, my hands feel bigger, my boobs look bigger, my face looks fatter, my neck seems to be turning into rolls and my arms look dimply and flabby. Whew....okay. That was a lot.

I don't know if this is normal to feel this way or if this is an issue. Either way....I'm still hanging in there people.
