I am SO happy for you - probably one of the best things you've ever done for your health. Good point also - the detox part of it - that stuff is absolutely addictive. Ask anyone with a mountain dew in their hand to go a week without it, and watch them freak out.
Oh, I hear that! I live with one! Once she saw my weight drop, she started cutting back as well.
There are water charts out there where you can figure out how much you need per day based on your size. The bigger you are, the more water you need to stay hydrated. That was shocking to me.
It really put into perspective how much dehydration we incur, and how most people we meet are likely dehydrated as well.
My israeli friend always gives people water when he greets them as a kind gesture. Now it makes sense.
That's a very kind gesture indeed. Water is something we all need, and you're right, most don't get enough. I love spring water - given what they put in the tap water these days, I won't even make rice or pasta with it. We buy 6-8 gallons of spring water each week for basic kitchen use (thank God they're like 2 for $1.50). We use it to make coffee, fill the cat's water dish, cook rice, potatoes, noodles, everything. The only use for tap water I have is to wash the dishes. Even on our shower head we have a filter.
San Pellegrino is great. Liquid Death is amazing. La Croix is another.
I got off soda in 2019 and while it sucks at first, once you detox you stop craving it, and get your mind back.
You'll wonder why you ever needed it in the first place.
