The following will probably amaze and startle you.


One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University study:

Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen.

Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

Are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?

(No kidding, all of the above are true....)

Of course, too much water may have strange side effects......

No way!!! Those must be photo shopped!! :roll:

lol!

She wasn't born with those. I think the dr. who did those should lose his license. I drink a lot of water but at 65 I don't think that's going to happen to me.

No thanks!

:lol:

The water facts *are* true though...

Rule of thumb = .5 oz per 1 lb of body weight per day. You have a little more room if you eat a lot of veggies and fresh things that already have water "in them". Eat a lot of bread-chips-packaged things? Need more water.

I don't disagree, but if I were to drink that much, I would be sloshing my way to the bathroom every twenty minutes.

Oh my....I don't know if I should drink water or not as I am lacking in the "water balloon" area - I think I will stick to diet pepsi - at least I know what I look like at the end of the day.....:)

There is a saying "too much of a good thing", so I will pass LOL thank Ditter, I needed a good laugh :lol:

It must be that Crystal River water!!!! Sad, but I've seen some almost that bad over here during the summer.

for some strange reason my back is hurting now!!!!!

And I thought I had a back problem! I do drink up to 4 or 5 bottles a day of water. Sometimes more.

lol if I drank too much water it would settle a lot lower

I know that I drink about a gallon of water per day. Since I had my gall bladder out, I'm almost constantly thirsty & water helps even the bile out a bit.

If I did that they would become a floatation device around my waist! LOL

I drink that much every day . If you drink a lot of soda diet or regular and switch to water you will be suprise how much weight you will loose

Thank you so much for the reminder....I definitely do not drink enough water and need to increase my intake...This'll help :lol:

Hubby is bringing me a glass as I type, Don't think he's just being nice

Ditter you made me laugh again!! I actually had to show the guys at work... they are laughing too (and eyes are popping out)

Oh man! I need to drink more!

OK then,,lets see (scribbling with a pen) gheeze that only 3.5 quarts of water for me...not to bad

Hilarious!

Oh, that picture is too funny! :D

But for those worried they'll be up all night running to the bathroom if they drink that much water, no fear. You will for awhile (a week or so at the most), but your body adjusts. Just make sure you have all your water in by 6:00 pm and you'll likely have no problems (after the adjustment period). :-D

Thanks I needed a good laugh !!!!!!

I don't drink unless I am thirsty. If I really needed that much water to survive I would be dead by now, because I drink nowhere NEAR 8 glasses a day.

On the other hand, DH had edema in his ankles, his doc told him to drink MORE water and it did work to clear up the edema. He drinks a lot of it.

That picture is kind of funny. My son once said after seeing something similar, "why don't they just put in inflatables and valve stems."

She certainly is not a quilter, How can she pick up pins on the floor , can she see her work at the sewing machine.

LOL I do agree with you. Always nice to be reminded to drink more water. I tend to forget.

I am lacking in that area also. Don't think I want to get bigger

Hilarious :lol: :thumbup:

I never heard this- can anyone tell me what that is in metric? I can do the lbs of bodyweight but not the ounces of water (unless that much water weighs an ounce?)

Metric is so much easier. I don't know how you deal with these measurements, people!!!

my senior friends will love this. LOL

hmmmm makes it hard to trust the story with an ending like that!

Oh My!!!

LOL
