## How to use it

1. **Set your goal.** Write how many glasses you are aiming for each day. Eight glasses are printed, but you can aim for fewer: start with what feels easy.
2. **Pin it where you fill your glass.** On the fridge, by the sink or next to the kettle: wherever you will see it when you pour a drink.
3. **Color a glass for each one.** Fill in a glass each time you finish one. Half a glass can be half colored.
4. **Look back at the end of the month.** Full rows show the days that worked. Notice what they had in common, like a bottle on your desk.

## Eight glasses through the day

| Glass | When | Tie it to |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 and 2 | Morning | Waking up, then breakfast |
| 3 | Morning | Starting work or class |
| 4 | Midday | Lunch |
| 5 | Midday | Your afternoon break |
| 6 | Evening | Getting home |
| 7 | Evening | Dinner |
| 8 | Anytime | After a walk or a workout |

## Make it stick

- **Keep a glass where you can see it.** A full glass on your desk or bedside table is the easiest reminder there is.
- **One with every meal.** A glass with breakfast, lunch and dinner is three before you even think about it. More small ones are on our [health habit ideas](https://www.cozyhabittracker.com/habit-ideas/health) page.
- **Make it 30 days.** Want a plan? The [30-day water challenge](https://www.cozyhabittracker.com/challenges/30-day-water-challenge) goes one small step at a time.

## Or let your phone count the glasses

In Cozy, Drink water can count in glasses: tap for each one and its card fills a little more until you reach your goal.

## Questions people ask

### How many glasses of water should I drink a day?

It depends on you, your day and the weather, so there is no one number for everyone. The sheet has eight glasses because it is an easy number to track: set your own goal, and ask a doctor if you are unsure.

### How big is one glass?

Whatever glass or bottle you use most. Keep it the same all month so the days compare.

### Can I count bottles instead of glasses?

Yes. Let each little glass stand for one bottle, or half of one, and write that next to your goal.
