When I was doing 18 hour days at my tuition college in 2009, I realised that I could not remember to drink water. It simply didn’t occur to me. There would be a glass of water on my table next to me and I wouldn’t notice it.
Doctors have recommended 8 glasses of water a day, but for most of my life I’ve got by on just one or two (plus tea and coffee) Being only 59kg most of the time meant there wasn’t really anywhere for the water to go. Of course, on hot days, I would drink a bit more. But water tastes blurrgk. (It’s a technical term!)
Great for Writers
So, I hired a programmer to create a simple PC program called Water Water. It can sit on the PC taskbar, and be set to remind you to drink water.
Ideal if you’re like me and you regularly forget to drink, eat and sleep!
The app worked perfectly for XP, but sadly after Windows 7 came out, new settings couldn’t be stored, and I didn’t have the money to update it.
In any case, if you want a program set on default that will automatically make the sound of pouring water every hour during work hours to remind you to drink some water, you can grab it here: Water Warner.
It’s free to download and install.
To your good health.
