If your idea of hydration is three sips of coffee before noon and a Diet Coke at lunch — congratulations, your kidneys are running on fumes. It’s time to treat water like your best friend: boring, essential, and always showing up for you.

What to Do This Week: The 3-Week “Drink to That” Challenge
Week 1: Just Add Water
- Target: Drink one full glass of water first thing in the morning.
- Why it’s good: Jumpstarts your metabolism and hydrates your shriveled cells from the night before.
- Bonus tip: Put your glass by the coffee maker. If it’s in the way, you’ll drink it just to get to the caffeine.
Week 2: The 3-Bottle Rule
- Target: Refill and finish a reusable 16–20 oz water bottle 3 times per day.
- Why it’s good: That’s 6–8 cups without counting ice cubes or watermelon.
- Bonus tip: Add lemon, cucumber, or a sprig of mint. It’s like a spa day for your taste buds.
Week 3: One-In, One-Out
- Target: For every non-water beverage (coffee, soda, “just one glass” of wine), drink a glass of water too.
- Why it’s good: Keeps you balanced and less likely to crash into snackville.
- Bonus tip: Treat it like a drinking game — minus the hangover.
Water isn’t sexy, but it’s what your body craves. Start sipping now, and by next month you’ll glow like someone who actually knows where their kidneys are.
