Body After Baby: Important Water Details

  at 9/30/2009
If you're participating in the Body After Baby Challenge, please read on.

I wish that I didn't have to clarify such things, but I do. Truth is, there are some people that can or may go crazy when one suggest drinking water or makes it a part of a challenge. I don't want anyone drinking  excessive amounts of water and getting sick because they were trying to win some challenge.

So, I am changing things a bit for this particular mini challenge and I apologize that this is mentioned after the original post.

One glass of water is equal to 8 oz of water.

The MAXIMUM amount of points you can earn for this challenge PER DAY is 8 points.

8 points= 8 ounces of water=8 glasses

Technically, eight ounces of water is equal to one glass of water. So that is what we're going by.

Any more water you drink it awesome, but points won't be counted towards this challenge.

Please understand that I have to do this out of safety reasons.

Thanks for understanding!

I thinking set a maximum amount of points per day is a good idea in general. I'm still trying to figure out the logistics of this challenge, but I'm really excited about it. :) Hope it isn't too late to enter, I had no idea it was starting on Sunday!

Good for you for making drinking water a goal AND making drinking water SAFE.

My grandma actually suffered from too much water intake and had to be hospitalized for a week (granted, she's older but anyone can flush their electrolytes out with too much water consumption!).

My mom is always worried about my water intake so i cut back from 4 litres a day to 3 litres. Being pregnant, though, means I'm still heading to the bathroom just as frequently!

I thought about that when you posted the challenge. There are some people out there that are dumb enough to poison themselves just to win something!

I found out about the challenge after the deadline does that mean I can't participate?

Love ya!

Oh, that makes is so much easier! And I like having a max amount of points. Can we do that for ALL of the challenges? It especially makes it easy if you just do the max each day, then you don't have to keep track!

Also, I don't have to feel awkward about how much water I drink (arid climate, plus nursing full time, plus I don't drink soda or juice...).

Also keep in mind that the small glasses are 8 oz and the large ones are 16 oz (approx).

Perfect! That's much easier to remember! Thanks!
