Oh no, we've unleashed the Furbys…. MISS Shannon, I've decided that Arvada has won our first official Tofurkey contest for making the first snide comment regarding Soy-based products and the importance of nutritious camping foods.

Congrats Arvada, you are free to choose to receive either a Tofurkey or a package of Tofurkey Jurky.

Feel free to use Show 3 as your motivation to stick with the treadmill!  I was pleasantly surprised myself when I saw how many achievements in sports, health and fitness there were in the program as a whole.  If we get into the beltloops with the boys, we reap the benefits in health … and in fun!  I would love to hear how you incorporated the use of the beltloops in your Bear program this spring.

As always, thanks for listening.

While I agree that many sources are now saying that it's not NECESSARY to drink 8 glasses of water a day, they aren't setting a goal either and many (if not all) individuals work best with a goal.  My own personal physician gave me the thumbs up just last week for setting a goal of 8.  I tend to drink more than that and water tends to be the only thing I drink besides 1 or 2 cups of hot tea (just to warm me up!!!) that are actually very weak at that (hubby calls it "dirty water" not tea).  Your water intake is not a universal thing so, you are right, that a goal of 8 glasses across the board may not be accurate.  BUT, why not go ahead and set a general goal?  If you can make it, great!  If not, there's some side affects to it, but you won't die (unless you aren't drinking ANY water).  My husband was just recently diagnosed with Diabetes and the Dr also told him that water intake was a big thing for him.  For him, she said ATLEAST 8.

I also don't view that goal as a weight loss system but rather a health goal.  Now, mind you, MISS Shannon is MUCH more versed in this subject than I, but to say "NO, don't drink 8 glasses of water" just because reports say you don't have to might be the same to some as saying "No, don't drink water."  But those are just my observations.

I LOVE it Jeff!!!
