No need to carry a gallon jug with you





Myth: a gallon Poland Spring jug is all you need.

So your fitness coach may have suggested the following: get a gallon Poland Spring jug. Fill it up in the morning. Carry it everywhere you go, the whole day. Sounds easy?

Let's say you're late for work in the morning and don't have time to refill your jug. Will you buy another jug once you get to work? Let's say you meet a friend for a cup of coffee. So when you drink your cup, you need to spill a cup of water out of your water jug to account for the coffee. Still sounds easy? Who wants to carry around 8 pounds of water the whole day anyway?

The Two Bands method will let you track your water intake with minimum trouble.

I hope you get the idea. It's 10:30am and I forgot if I had my 10am drink. No problem. Just look at your bands:  Two bands up? Have a drink and ...
