Hi All,

I am still waiting for insurance approval so while I'm waiting I figured I start some new habits. One is to drink more Water or liquids in general. Is it ok to drink the flavored waters like Fruit2O? What other kinds of liquids could I do to get me to 60 fuid oz a day? I like milk so how many glasses can I consume in a day? Any other ideas on other things I can do while I'm waiting, I even started a mini exercise routine.

That's a great habit to get into! Watch the milk consumption. One cup of fat-free milk has 80 calories, and 125 mg. of sodium (salt). The flavored waters are good for variety. Also, Crystal Light and decaffeinated tea. One of my favorites is Ocean Spray Cranberry juice Lite cut 50/50 w/water. I keep a big chilled jug in the frig. all the time.

And yes, find some type of exercise that you enjoy and will stick to. Best of luck to you on your approval!

You can also squeeze a little lemon or lime or even orange into your water. Do you like V8? It also comes in low sodium.
