About six months ago I changed what I drink. Before, I just grabbed anything, a diet soft drink, coffee, bottled tea, maybe a juice here and there. As far as alcohol I just had a drink or two whenever I wanted one. Now I drink 8-10 ounces of water when I get up; have one coffee or latte before 10AM; and only drink water the rest of the day, sometimes with lemon. As far as alcohol, I have no more than 2-3 drinks per week and only on the weekends. I don’t really have a strict rule with alcohol, I just tried to cut back. If I’m out with co-workers or friends I’ll sub a soda+lime in the place of alcohol.
Three things that I’ve noticed. 1) I sleep much better. 2) I feel better but can’t really put my hand on why specifically. 3) All I really want to drink now is water, in fact canned and bottled drinks turn me off just like bags of junk food.
I’m curious if others who have taken out other beverages and upped their water intake have noticed similar things.
Also, are there any believers in drinking green tea and, if so, why?
