Water First - Think Your Drink

Water Away From Home

To make drinking water a regular part of your life, take it with you!

• Fill a water bottle and take it with you every time you leave the house.
• Make a “water only” rule in the car. If it spills it’s much less sticky than soda, coffee or sports drinks.
• Drink water while you’re at work. Being well hydrated keeps your brain sharp and can keep you from overeating.   If you don’t like the taste of the water at your work place, consider pitching in with your co-workers to have a spring water company provide a dispenser and deliver large jugs of water on a regular basis.
• If you get popcorn at a movie, drink water to quench your thirst.
• When traveling long distances, make sure every passenger has a water bottle. This can save money and keep you from overeating.
