Verdict

With the completion of my challenge, I can now finally answer my questions and quench your suspense (I know you've been holding your breathe all week).

Observations Continued:
Day 3
-Noticeable difference in BM's

Day 4
-Feeling extremely full and bloated today. Could barely eat.
-Going...or rather running to the bathroom every 20 minutes
-People are starting to ask questions

Day 5
-Really struggling today. Feeling sick and full.
-Others have rallied in support and have jumped on the drinking bandwagon.
-Noticed new pimple which may or may not be related to the family size bag of Doritos I ate yesterday
-Unable to achieve 4 litres....Drank a little over 3
-Bladder needs vacating every 45 minutes or so

Day 6
-Still struggling (Officially giving up)
-Drank 2 litres, was much easier as I ran for an hour beforehand
-HUGE (new) zit on my face, situated in super strategic location right in the middle of my forehead between the eyes which may or may not be related to the King sized chocolate Kit Kat bar I ate yesterday

Day 7
-Drank 2 litres
-Lips cracking
-Zit on forehead has orbiting moons

Thoughts/Conclusions:
  • Four litres daily is entirely way too much to drink (unless you're a horse, which may explain why I had to pee like one)
  • I chose the worst time to conduct this experiment; wrong time of the month
  • I chose the best time to conduct this experiment; I was in training and didn't actually need to be productive
  • The real reason why people lose weight doing this is because of all the running to and from the toilet

Answers:
  1. Does drinking water cause skin to glow?? Unless you're drinking water sourced from near a nuclear power plant or an actor in the movie Cacoon...I think not.
  2. Does drinking water cause skin to look younger, fresher and more vibrant? Definitely yes...my skin is EXACTLY how it was all those years ago.
  3. Will it finally solve world hunger, bring peace to all the nations, balance the budget and end the recession? Hmm...this isn't a Miss Universe panel, so I would have to go with "I think not".
Verdict:
  • No one has commented on my silky smooth, pimple-free skin
  • I hold more influence over my co-workers and friends than I thought (woo hoo popular band nerd is back!!!)
  • Whoever thought drinking 4 liters a day was a good idea is crazy stupid

  1. Hahahahahahahahaha! Oh dear. Awesome experiment! I can't believe you made it from your bus to work without stopping in a store or restaurant or something...ouch! I'm still a proactiv believer/user - best thing ever. Can you find an experiment to get rid of wrinkles? That's what I need...especially the "angry mom lines" between the eyebrows. I call it the "squinting from the sun while driving lines" but, potato po-tah-to.
