STAY HEALTHY, LOSE WEIGHT, and FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE SPA...INTERESTED?

Water.  Do you love it or hate it?

Whatever side of the fence you fall on, there is no arguing that we all need it!

As a classroom teacher I drank minimally to avoid the urge to run the restroom.  Bad choice.  Friend, I hope you aren't still living in that world.

Water has since become a staple in my life.  I gulp it down freely, especially when I present.  And, during the summer months, I often spruce it up a bit!

Check out some of my favorite recipes for fruit infused water.  Make it by the glass or fill an entire pitcher and allow about 4 hours to sit in the refrigerator.  I promise your taste buds are in for a treat.

STRAWBERRY LEMON

Okay, stick with me here.  It's basic, but the vitamin C is powerful, and the lemon also helps you maintain an optimal PH.  Think weight loss, heart health, cancer fighter, and more.

CUCUMBER MINT

Cucumber water is served at spas for a reason.  A stress fighter and metabolism booster are just a few of the benefits.

WATERMELON BASIL

This is a summer favorite and bursting with flavor.  If you aren't a huge basil fan, go a bit lighter on it or substitute mint.

GRAPE ORANGE

This is a kid favorite!   Be sure to slice the grapes and let this one sit overnight.  You can also add some mint or basil for fun.
