As I am enjoying a plain glass of ice water I am thinking when the last time one?
Hydration seems harder in the winter and has been more a hot tea drinker, a few soda and coffees during the season.
How well have you been staying hydrated?

I could do better. I make it a habit that everytime I get up from my desk, I finish a glass of water. I’m always trying to find some life hacks lol.

Get a nice water bottle and take it with you everywhere. Bonus, you don't have to pay for bottled water. You save money and don't generate trash!

I pretty much only drink water, tea, coffee, beer. Used to drink soda as a kid, but when it stopped being easily available, I stopped without even realizing. Lost 10 pounds basically immediately.
If I'm feeling extra thirsty in a way that water isn't satisfying, I use one of those salty hydration multipliers and I'm sorted pretty quick (I like the LMNT brand since they have good flavors and no sugar)

I track my water intake, nutrition, and workouts in the Proof of Work Fitness app.
I typically stay really well hydrated but I kind of got a little blue a few weeks ago and my urine was dark yellow so I wanted to do a better job of staying hydrated. So I started using my app more.

I have developed something rather useful in my personal life.
Every time that I have a thought about water, as in, "should I get a glass now?", I simply stop what I'm doing and drink a glass of water, fill up the glass again and go back to what I was doing.
That trick has made me drinking way more water that before, and it is great.

Much better than you. Sorry, couldn't resist. :-)
