  • Nobody will need to be told how much water to drink each day. When you are thirsty, drink. If you are not thirsty, don't drink.

    At least its a freebie that:

    a. is actually free and requires "no spend"
    b. no-one has posted before
    c. is not spam of some description

    Drinking water surpresses hunger and can therefore help with weght loss.

    For the record, when your body tells you that you're thirsty its because you're already slightly dehydrated. The best for your body is to drink fairly small and constant amounts so that you're never thirsty.

    I only feel thirsty when I have got the point of dry mouth and extreem thirst. I do not drink enough as I don't get the 'thirst' signs. I needs something like this to remind me to drink. ty :-)

    Well i'm going to DL it for my partner onto his PC.... he's addicted to online gaming, and rarely leaves his PC in the evening. At least this will remind him there's still a world out there! Thanks OP!
