An average drinking glass holds approximately eight ounces of water, so it would be about eight glasses of water. If you drink out of a 20 oz water bottle, you would need to drink three bottles. Try to have a designated water bottle that you drink out of, that way you will know that amount your drinking each time.
GOT 30 DAYS TO GET HEALTHIER? WE CHALLENGE YOU!
We want you and your family to remove sugary beverages and drink more water!
Take the challenge at anytime and empower yourself to start making healthier choices.
The truth about sugar is bittersweet.
- Consuming sugary drinks leads to heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay.
- Sugar-sweetened beverage consumption is associated with less healthy behavior.
- Soda is the number one source of added sugar in the American diet and more than 30 percent of all calories from added sugars consumed daily come from sweetened beverages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we do the challenge as a family?
Yes! In fact, it’s better if you can do the challenge with family and friends. It will create a greater impact in your community and will allow the entire group to support each other during the challenge.
Will I get withdrawals or headaches?
You may feel headaches and have sugar cravings. Try consuming natural forms of sugar, such as fruit, honey or vegetables to curb the negative effects.
What if I cheat and have a sugary drink?
It’s okay. It’s better to make a mistake and get back into the challenge than to give up completely. Do the best you can and reach out to others for encouragement.
What is the best way to measure 60 oz of water?
What if the water where I live tastes bad?
Consider purchasing an inexpensive water filter or add flavor from healthy, natural sources such as fruit.
What happens at the end of the challenge?
We hope that there is no end for participants of the challenge. We would like everyone to continue their healthy habits and help share them with the rest of the community, beyond November. The Zero to 60 Challenge is a great starting point for long-term health improvement.
