Darcy - water challenge

[Guest guest]

Hi Darcy,

Good doing on the 16 days in a row. I think I've only

missed two days in Feb so far - one b/c I was sick,

one b/c I was travelling.

I would like to join you in a water challenge - how

about we set a minimum of drinking 40 oz a day. That

shouldn't be too hard! I hope..... Can we say that

seltzer (sparkling water) spiked with a dash of juice

or lemon slice counts? that helps me to get it in.

Donna
