making water a priority

Rewind to a year ago and you'd find A telling me at least twice a day that I needed to drink more water. Maybe more is not the right word for that...I needed to drink water period. He's always been a great water drinker, as in like 8 big tervis cups a day. He did have a point, I would routinely feel myself getting to the pass out point. Whoops! 

Rewind to about three months ago. Alexa and I were discussing the viral article about the UK woman who drank three liters a day and saw significant and good changes. We decided we would like to make that a goal. 

I've done great so far, but only during the week. I'm sort of OCD and I need to write down my water intake in order to see where I'm at for the day and how much I have left to drink. This isn't an issue during the week, I have my fancy planner to write in down in...but I leave that at the office. That causes a problem of keeping track over the weekend. 

A problem that I solved today! Admittedly, I was not even looking for an app to do this...I was searching for that water color app that everyone and their mom has been posting on Instagram (#trendfollower). I found that and was too cheap to buy it, but right under it was a free app that caught my attention. This is in no way a sponsored post AT ALL, but I know most people make goals at the start of the year to drink more water so I PSA was needed.

Enter your new best friend, water logged. 

You set your goal for the day and then enter in how much you drink throughput the day. You can even set alerts to remind you! It's completely customizable. My favorite part, however, is the app bade. 

If you are OCD like me, you hate app badges. (Thankfully I know how to take them off, I am looking at you Facebook!) the great thing about this one is that you can set it to be the number of ounces you have left to drink. This is the best motivation for me, because once I drink it all, the annoying badge is gone! Nope, not a freak or anything...

Bottom line, if you are trying to be better about drinking water, you need this app. Now excuse me, I have to go take a bathroom break again.
