Help with water
| Mon, 12-20-2004 - 11:51am |
Does anybody have any suggestions about how I could make drinking all that water not a chore. I hate water, it's like torture for me to drink one glass a day, let alone 8. Does anyone else have a way to make it taste better, or any other suggestions to make it more bearable?

also try drinking out of a taller glass so u will get more
The only way I can really drink water (unless I'm in a restaurant) is to drink it from a bottle. Not sure why, but I'm able to just drink it down without really noticing when it's in a bottle!

I am just a young girl in need of some
Some days water tastes great... others, I make instant iced tea (I like Lipton's, not Nestea, and not too strong). And it needs to be really cold. And, shallow creature that I am, if I find a glass I really love to look at, I'm more likely to keep at it. Also, when we actually eat at the table (usually with guests), instead of over the sink or in front of the TV, I put a glass pitcher full of ice water there, and keep refilling as we talk. Bottles are good, too. Pellegrino is wonderful, but way too pricy for me to use for 64 oz a day.
Some of this probably sounds wacky, especially in the dead of winter, but... tends to work for me, and maybe you're quirky, too!

I agree with who ever said drinking water from a water bottle is the best. I like to do that also....I think it has something to do with suckling (crazy i know) it was comforting when we were babies...it also helps me keep track of how much I drink.
You can also open the bottles and add lemon or lime...I like mine plain and very very cold. I can freeze the bottles and put them in the car or at my desk at work and by the time they unfreeze I am ready for that bottle. I carry one unfrozen and two frozen with me.
I have noticed that at first I could hardly drink water and had to force myself to do it...about a week later it wasn't as hard as at first. So keep trying....it flushes fat out of your system remember that. Helps me...I picture the fat flowing right out of me!
