The month of May was really hectic for me.  I was in training for 2 weeks and then when i returned from training I had so much work to catch up on I did not workout.  After that I went on vacation, and I was trying to enjoy my vacation, so I didn’t workout during that time either.  Therefore for a month I did not workout, however I have re-committed to my health and fitness.  I worked out yesterday, 45 mins. of cardio and after I finish this post I am going to workout today.  I also spoke to a personal trainer and we will meet once a week.  He is going to help me get started on weight lifting (aka: resistance training).  Wish me luck!!!

I have heard that you should drink a gallon of water every day.  I have read other people’s Bodyspace comments and some have mentioned that this is part of their routine.  Can someone explain the need and benefits of drinking a gallon of water a day?  How does this help the body? (i.e. loose weight and / or gain lean muscle)
