Food is good and all that but YOU REALLY FUCKING NEED WATER. I always drink one glass of water before each meal and another glass right after. Shit, that’s almost all the water you need in a day.
Feeling tired? Got a headache? Nauseous? Fuck those Rx commercials with their crazy ass side effects, drinking more water is the cheapest way to feel better. I drink mine straight but if you’re fancy as fuck then toss in some lemon, mint leaves, lime, cucumber, lemongrass. I don’t give a good goddamn, JUST DRINK IT.

MOTIVATION: making fitness a habit.
The timing could not have been more perfect when I saw that goop’s latest newsletter was all about making (and breaking) habits. Why? Because tomorrow is May 1st and MYB is kicking off yet another 22 Workout Challenge! 
The 22 Workout Challenge** tasks its followers with completing 22 workouts in the month of May. Why 22? Because do something 22 times and it becomes a habit. Workout 22 times and the action becomes unconscious. Magic! 
But don’t take my word for it…take it from Gwyneth Paltrow.

How to Break a Habit… or Start a New One
Habits are much more powerful than we realize. So often we act out of what we are used to, what we know, what we have done in the past instead of making a better choice. A choice in the moment that might be for our higher good. In researching for this issue, I saw that oftentimes, detrimental behaviors can be modified by focusing on changing patterns, and forming new neural pathways. Now, I am not saying I don’t need a shrink. But how empowering to have the tools to make significant change by identifying the kind of choices you want to be making and habitualizing them?

Thanks for the shoutout, @undoordinary_ !! Ran a faster race than I have in years, coming within 2 minutes of a PR for the half marathon — which I set 7 years ago.
