When I started on my journey in 2018 with LT360 I rested about 7 hours a night . It gook around 1 year and 3/4 to get back to that . The main reason was having to get up and go . I went from 15 times a night to 1 a night 🙂 I did not give rest a high enough billing ! I still find it a struggle to stop and get to bed and up around the same times . If I don’t there is a BIG difference in how clear my mind is, the energy I have and how grumpy I am 🙂

WATER, WONDERFUL WATER 

Here we go on Justine’s Journey :). Think will start with the beverage til a few years ago I said NO thank you to… ! You guessed it, Water .  When I was growing up, a treat from my Mama Callie and Aunt Goldie was a Coke a Cola .  When I became an adult my choice was to drink ONLY Coke a Cola . Yes, for breakfast and lunch and dinner and any other time .  Started trying to go off Coke a Cola (10-18-2015) 🙂  Close to 9 months later I tried having water with lunch (7-28-2016) . I basically substituted Coke a Cola with juices. Started cutting back on juices 1-21-16. Went off orange and pineapple juices about 9 months later (10-17-2016) 🙂  I also tried drinking more water with homemade lemonade sweetened with honey for supper .  It wasn’t till around mid May 2018 that went to all water 🙂  This push happen when Doug and I started LT360 and needed to count calories .  As you can see just drinking water has been a struggle ! You would think having kidney stones twice would turn a light bulb on ?  Oh, when started drinking more water had to check out where bathrooms were !  When first started drinking just water, was getting up 15 times a night .    I am not “hydrated” by LT360 as still have more fat to lose .   Sooo much improved 🙂  LT360 suggest drinking 1/2 your weight in water 🙂  I drink 2 cups more as suggested by my doctor 🙂 Let me tell if you do not have a strategy for drinking your water time can slip by you .  I try and drink a bottle of water after breakfast and then after lunch and so on 🙂  Also have found if you finish drinking your water a couple of hours before bed you go less ! 🙂 Happy Hydrating 🙂
