How much should I drink while I'm on Plan? As a rule of thumb, aim to drink 2 to 2.5 litres of fluid a day, which is around 8 glasses.
Here are our top 5 tips for staying hydrated throughout the day:
1. Wake up first thing in the morning and drink a glass or two of water – most people are least hydrated in the morning!
2. Carry a water bottle around with you all day. Don’t leave your house without it and simply refill every time it’s empty
3. Drink 500mL (1/2 litre) of water 30 minutes before meals – specific scientific studies have shown that this supports weight loss
4. Drink water when you think you’re hungry. If you feel a hunger pang between meals, pour yourself a tall glass of fresh drinking water first to see if you’re dehydrated. Sometimes people think they’re hungry when really, they’re just thirsty
5. Drink water before, during and after a workout. Drinking water during a workout can help your endurance and energy levels, giving you enough to see your exercise through to the end. Plus it will replace any water you lost through perspiration or water vapour lost from breathing.
And remember, you can add our water flavours too as they're suitable for all Steps 🚰💧
