Drinking water is so important but can be a major challenge for a lot of people. There are plenty of reasons to drink more water. 

I will admit that drinking enough of water throughout the day is a major challenge for myself. It is something that I have always struggled with. 

And I know that I should be drinking more water. I find that when I drink enough water throughout the day, I feel better and look better. 

There are a few ways that I get myself to drink more water throughout the day. The number way is what I actually drink the water out of. I have to drink my water ice cold which means I need a well insulated cup to do that! Also, I have found that water goes down faster when you use a straw. 

Ask any VSCO girl and they will tell you that a stainless steel water bottle and reusable straw are a must! I knew I was a VSCO girl at heart. Below are some of my favorite insulated cups and reusable straw. 

The Best Insulated Cups and Reusuable Straws

YETI Rambler 20oz 

The YETI Rambler family is tough as hell, and will keep your drinks as cold (or hot) as science allows.

Simple Modern 24oz Classic Tumbler with Straw Lid & Flip Lid 

Simple Modern Classic tumblers are double walled and vacuum insulated, which keeps your favorite beverage hot or cold for hours.

Hydro Flask Water Bottle

Our unique double wall vacuum insulation protects temperature for hours. Cold drinks stay icy cold and hot drinks stay piping hot so you can stay refreshed for any adventure.

MyBevi Classic Stainless Steel Premium Grade Insulated Travel Tumbler

Our vacuum-insulated premium stainless-steel tumbler is a state-of-the-art travel tumbler. A stainless steel and copper-coated inner lining keeps liquids at the desired temperature for up to 12 hours without affecting the flavor, and the tapered body style allows for a comfortable grip, plus it fits into most car and truck cup holders.

Reusable Pocket Straw

Food-safe 18/8 Stainless Steel is durable enough for repeated daily use, eliminating the need for disposable straws; silicone mouthpiece mimics the feel of plastic and protects teeth; usable in hot and cold beverages

Now that you have your favorite water bottle and straw ready to go, it’s time to get drinking! Here is why you should drink more water. 

Why You Should Drink More Water

Weight Loss.  Drinking water may help with weight loss, especially if you are replacing sugary drinks with water. Remember, water has zero calories so load up on your water and avoid sodas and juices. “Preloading” with water before meals will also fill up your stomach so that you feel full and reduce your hunger. 

Healthier Skin. Drinking more water moisturizes your skin keeping it fresh, glowing, and smooth! I definitely notice a difference in my skin when I’m properly hydrated.

More energy! Who doesn’t need that, right? Your brain is mostly water, so drinking water helps keep you focused and alert. It also helps boost your energy levels!

Get rid of your headaches. A symptom of dehydration is headaches. A lot of times, our headaches are caused by being dehydrated. I know this is the case for me most times.

It projects your joints, spinal cord, and tissues.  Water consumption helps lubricate and cushion your joints, spinal cord, and tissues. This will help you enjoy physical activity and lessen discomfort caused by conditions like arthritis.

It reduces the chance of a hangover. When partying, unsweetened soda water with ice and lemon alternated with alcoholic drinks can help prevent over-consumption of alcohol.

Your body needs it! You could go 4-8 weeks without food. But without water? You would only last about a week!

Do you have a hard time drinking all your water?

    This is an area where I have been trying to do a lot better. It can be hard at times to drink water, but when you look at all the benefits it makes it easier. Thanks.

    […] I hate drinking water. Hate it. If you see me drinking water, it’s because either I am out of something else and it’s the only we have left in the fridge or I am severely dehydrated. In fact, the only way I tolerate water is if I add some Crystal Light, low calorie drinks. […]
