The primary purpose of this blog was to chronicle a healthy eating and weight loss journey that began in Sicily in 2008 and grew into a passion for eating well. In Italy relationships happen around the table and mouth watering dishes are created from simple fresh ingredients.

Working on Water
Getting enough water is so important for you health and well being. Lack of water can cause dehydration, symptoms of hunger (when you are actually just thirsty), and headaches. According to Dr. Jordan Rubin, author of "The Maker's Diet" and other sources, you should try to drink a 1/2 oz. of water per each pound of body weight. This may be more than 64 oz or about 8 glasses of water, which is normally reccommended. I try to drink between 4-6 16oz. bottles of water throughout the day, starting when I first wake up. So today and this week, "Work on Water"!
