I dont'thave anything against water really, but I just like drinking other things so much more. Yes, with how I eat, people probably wonder about my commitment to Weight Waters, but I am honestly. I just have an issue with drinking water. You are supposed to drink at least 4 8 oz containers per day, but I am lucky if I do half. I really don't dislike water..I just would rather drink other things. Do you have a problem drinking water?

I drink diet soda sometimes so I don't want to put anything like that in it.

I love water, nothing beats it for me. I've never been a soda drinker and I'll have a morning coffee or tea but maaaan water is so good. it's all about building the habit of drinking it. first thing I do when I wake up is have a full bottle of water. keeping a reusable bottle/cup with you helps, too. you can add fruit to your water to give it more of a flavor, that might help.

Adding lemon helps but adding any sweeter would probably defeat the purpose.

@isweartokira I never thought about that in regard to teeth, but you are probably right!

@snowy22315 eh, it's still water you're drinking. and be careful adding lemon, it's not good for your teeth. I have a friend who adds a few strawberries and mint leaves to her water pitcher and let's it soak overnight. she can drink it all but regular water she hates.

Coffee is good for you and yes to a certain extent too, but water may be there best.

@LadyDuck It seems I will drink almost any beverage I happen to have around. Coffee usually just in the morning though. I have to watch my caffeine intake

@snowy22315 During the day the only thing I drink is water, but I need my morning coffee and another cup at mid morning. I do not like sodas.

I am a soda drinker particularly Coke. On the average, I drink 3 cans of Coke a day. But I always drink half a glass of water after the Coke.

Any of those soda's regular or diet aren't very good for you at all. I almost never drink regular soda, but I have a glass or two of diet per day.

@snowy22315 the diet soda has a story. Try to find it if you are interested for I don't drink diet and I don't care.

@stbrians that is what they say. My great uncle likes Coke and was drinking that every day.

I'm trying to get off sodas completely and am in somewhat the same boat. I like ice cold water and then again plain water gets boring. I've added lemon juice which is just a personal favorite, but there are a lot of flavor packets on the market that are 0 calories or low calorie if you can do it with flavored water. I'm also trying to drink more tea. Good luck!

@snowy22315 It's easy for me during the summer because I stay outside so much!

Thanks, I drink a lot of tea. However, it is essential to drink water..maybe when it gets a bit warmer drinking water won't be such a chore. I have heard it is OK to drink Hint water, but that isn't too delicious, plus it costs money.

i've always liked water and will drink it after drinking coffee, juice, softdrink. but yeah i know people who find it bland and have problems with constipation and urinary tract infection. you're right. maybe it won't be so hard for you come summer.

Lately, I seem to want more of it than usual. It's pretty dry so that might have something to do with it. I do have a bottle of eggnog in the fridge calling my name though!!

Since, I basically like it, I don't know why I am not drinking my quota.

I like that as well. I think too much tea may be bad for kidneys though. I read that somewhere.

I love water. I have a filter at my house. I have to change the inside every 4 months. It leaves a delicious water.

@stbrians In my case, it is doing something I like. I drink a lot more in the summer than in winter though.

@stbrians Exactly. In summer the temperature is higher and you need more water.

I'm the same, I don't drink enough water even though I know I should. I drink mainly tea. I drink more water in the hot weather.

I do not like drinking water on its own. I usually put some cordial in it. Plain water makes me gag! I am not too keen on fizzy drinks.
