Make a delicious decision to drink more water

water (ARA) – Picture this: You’re out on the go on a hot summer day and you realize you’re thirsty. You want something different, but you’re not sure what beverage you should reach for to quench that thirst.

As it turns out, you’re like the majority of women because, according to a recent survey, 74 percent of women admit they’d like to consume more water. Interestingly, women who drink Crystal Light drink 20 percent more water each day.

To support women who want to drink more water, Crystal Light launched the Water Way Challenge, which encourages people to drink two more glasses of water a day. Here are some tips to add drinking water into your routine:

* Water with every meal.
Every time you sit down to eat, take a glass of water with you. This healthy habit will help you drink at least three glasses of water a day. Try setting a pitcher of water on the table at mealtime so you can easily refill your empty glass. If you tend to eat out a lot, opt for water and ask your server to leave a pitcher on the table.

* Ode to the water cooler.
The office water cooler is not just a place for jokes and gossip, you can add a little flavor to it, too. As soon as you get to work, grab a glass and fill it up and make it even more delicious with Crystal Light. Keeping a glass of water in front of you will remind you to drink throughout the day. If your job doesn’t require you to sit at a desk, keep a glass within arm’s reach and make a habit of drinking water every time you take a break.

* Don’t forget your water bottle.
If you’re on the go, be sure to bring your water bottle. Keeping a reusable water bottle on hand is good for the planet and your body. Whether you’re picking the kids up from school, walking the dog, or shopping with the girls, be sure to stay hydrated.

* Take the challenge with friends.
Challenge your friends or co-workers to drink more water everyday. The Water Way Challenge encourages people to drink two additional glasses of water a day. You can join the challenge at DeliciousChange.com, where you can also learn more about Global Water Challenge, a coalition of leading organizations that helps ensure people in need have sustainable solutions and access to clean water.
